Thomas Quinn, b Edenderry ~1824, d Williamstown, South Australia, 1904

Dear Patrick

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

There are two baptism records for a Thomas Quinn in Edenderry on rootsireland.ie - one in 1821 and the other in 1827 and either could be your Thomas though it is not possible to rule either in at this point. Do you have any further info about him - parent's names or siblings for example?

Dear Clare,

I have found some information about my great-grandfather, Thomas Daniel Quinn.  He married Anne Murphy and they baptized their first child, Bridget on 25 April, 1852.  The address given is Barnan, in the Parish/District of Daingean, in County Offaly.  Their denomination was Roman Catholic.

Is there anyway to find out the parents/realives of Thomas Quinn.

Regards,

Patrick Quinn

Hi Patrick

You could have a look on rootsireland.ie (a subscription site) to see if the marriage record is available.It may also be on familysearch.org, a free site. At a most basic level a marriage record would show/record the fathers' names and sometimes the mothers' first names though not always in the case of the latter. They would have married in the bride's parish. Depending on where this was the following link might be useful:
