    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    You don't mention the religious denomination of the family but since I located William in the 1911 census, I can see he was Church of Ireland. I would contact the church directly. You may have to go to the church in Skibbereen. See link below.

  • Thanks  Roger,  you have helped me before, also someone  messaged you last year,  they were looking for relatives in ireland,  she put all her details mums name and maiden name and grandparents, i googled her name which came up on facebook checked her friends which gave her mums name , i joined her facebook shop and rang her in new Zealand. Turns out her mum and my gran are 2nd cousins its a small world. My cousin in canada had his dna results from ancestry a few days ago which confirmed a scholl tree from switzerland which you helped me with and now have  a copy of their marriage  cert,, and also were descendants of john vickery and Catherine  swanton bantry vickerys. You guys are all amazing thanks again for your help.
