Help required as to Parish Re:- Hannan/Alcock

Hi Leo,

I'll admit first of all that I am a genealogist for a living but I do try to assist people on sites like this and do have a connection with Sligo.

Alan and Mary did indeed get married in Sligo in 1845 in the RC parish of Kilfree. You can buy a transcript of the record from www.rootsireland.ie

As to whether you are related is a much more involved investigation. The places you mention - the first is in Mayo and the others in Sligo. I can only see one Patrick Hannon on an 1858 property record so, you should be able to locate the position of the house.

good luck

Peter

Hi Peter.

May I first thank you for taking the time to respond to my enquiry. When you said in your answer "Alan & Mary got married in Sligo" Did you mean Patrick & Mary as per my original request.

Could I also ask you to give me a quote (bearing in mind your profession)  for an investigation into my Irish Ancestry and the process for that to happen?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Leo Hannan

I do apologise Leo - yes it should read Patrick.

Certainly, we could retrieve a copy of the marriage entry which would make an interesting souvenir but I think you wanted a little more than that.

If you go to my site here www.irishfamilyancestry.com/Assessment-Form.aspx and complete the Assessment Form I can give you an honest assessment fo the chances of success of subsequent research including identifying if these are your ancestors - that's free. You can then decide if you want to go ahead.There are more details about the service and fees on the Services page.

kind regards

Peter

Good Afternoon Peter.

I have completed the assessment form and hopefully you will be able to make sense of it.

I will be in Mayo about the 20th August at the Harlequin Hotel in Castlebar and if you are anywhere near there perhaps we could meet up.

Regards

Leo
