I have a marriage record for my Great-Grandparents (Frederick McComas and Elizabeth [Eliza] Johnstone who were married in St Paul, Dublin North on 11th January 1858, but I can find no record of their births. If anyone can help I would be so grateful. To continue with my quest I need names of parents. Frederick's father was also a Frederick and Elizabeth's father  could be James and her mother Elizabeth Leathorn.

Frederick and Eliza had three children born in Dublin : William in 1858, Caroline in 1863 and Angelina in 186

My Great-Grandparents moved to Portsmouth sometime between 1864 and 1867.

 

Thank you, Lyn Neal

  • Hi Lyn!

    Here's a record for Eliza Catherine Johnstone born the 26 of May, 1834 and baptized at St. Peter's, Dublin whose father was a James Johnstone.  According to the record her mother's name was Amelia.  Unfortunately maiden names of mothers weren't always recorded.  The age seems about right to be your Eliza.

  • Hi Lyn
    There are 6 McComases in Griffiths Valuation (free at http://www.askaboutireland.ie/) in Dublin in 1847
    They are all in Dublin South.
    I couldn't find any relevant ones in the Tithe Applotments, Irish Censuses, Irish Genealogy, ancestry or rootsireland.ie/
