My great grandfather Robert Holmes was born on 4 June 1832 in the Church of Ireland parish of Tisaran. His father was John Holmes and his wife was Jane Hardy. John was a member of the County Constabulary and it seems he and his family may have been tenants of The Rev Henry King of Ballylin Estate (townland of Ballylin). There are a number of Holmes families in and around Ferbane town and I am trying to identify which family John Holmes is connected to. I would also like to establish who Jane Hardy's parents were. They may have come from Shannonbridge.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out and apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
Have you had a look on Rootsireland.ie to see if there are any further records for the family? Roots is a subscription site but you can now subscribe for as little as 24 hours. I see that the Tithe's list a John Holmes HERE
