Fenton

Hi Mary Ann

I notice that your tree on ancesry has Henry's birth year as 1887

There are 2 records from www.rootsireland.ie/ which could be his:

Name:Henry FenlonDate of Birth:02-Apr-1887

Registration Date:
Address:Ferry LaneParish/District:LismoreGender:MaleCountyCo. Waterford

Denomination:Civil Parish / District
Father:Henry FenlonMother:Mary FitzgeraldOccupation:Postman

Name:Henry FentonDate of Birth:

Date of Baptism:07-Aug-1888Address:John StParish/District:TULLOWGender:

Denomination:Roman Catholic
Father:Thomas FentonMother:Mary ReganOccupation:

Sponsor 1 /
Informant 1:James CumminsSponsor 2 /
Informant 2:Catherine Cummins

The first has the correct year but the name is misspelt; the second the wrong year but name correct.

As there were a lot of transcription errors and illiteracy it's hard to know which is correct.

I couldn't find a marriage record so perhaps they married in the US or in Ireland after 1920 where the records stop on rootsireland

Thank you for such a quick response.  I have had very little luck finding any information, I now have more info than I did.  Thank you for you assistance. Merry Christmas.
