Help! Patrick Doyle

Margaret:

I searched two subscription sites and did not find the marriage in Ireland or the UK.  Looks like their were six children including Philip. Did the family emigrate?

It seems Patrick had a brother who worked with him and lived at the same address

Birth of Anne 1881

v

Birth of Laurence son of Laurence

Birth of Christina, daughter of Laurence

Birth of Patrick 1883

Birth of Philomena daughter of Laurence

Margaret,

Further to the previous messages, I found this marriage record on irishgenealogy,ie. This seems to be the relevant record, which shows his father as Patrick (who was dead), and his father-in-law a pawnbroker. A further search on the subscription site rootsireland.ie shows a Patrick Doyle with father Patrick baptised at Lemanaghan parish in 1840. This is the only suitable record in Offaly. Margaret Daly was his mother.This record would indicate that Mary Anne may have been from Longford, as it was traditional for a marriage to take place in the parish of the bride.

Best wishes, Kieran

thank you all very much for your excellent help.

cheers Margaret
