Hi
Can you seek a birth/Baptismal record for Mary Bourke born on 28 Feb 1831 in Murroe parish.
- parents are John Bourke and Bridget Keily
Also looking for a Marrage record for Maurice Bourke and Catherine Keily. I suspect Maurice and John Bourke are brothers and Bridget and Catherine Keily are sisters.
Thanks for your assistance

No Baptismal record for mary Bourke 1831 in Murroe Records.
Also no marriage record for Maurice and Catherine Kiely.Although if you suspect they are sisters it is possible that they may have been married in St Johns PArish.
I had a look in the records and there is a Maurice Bourke having Children from 1834-1852 He is married to a Catherine/Kitty Bourke not Kiely?
There is no marriage record for for this marriage either .

Yes, Maurice Bourke married to Kitty Bourke (Keily). Thats him!
Can you tell me who their children are from 1834 -1852.
Also, can you look at Margerat Bourke bapt/ Birth 22 march 1838. Maurice and Kitty are listed as sponsors
Thanks

The strange thing about this is that in the Murroe Baptismal records ,the Mothers name is normally written down as her maiden name and this case it is Burke not Keily in all of her childrens records.Which does suggest that her maiden name was Burke and not Keily ????
