Good day everyone.
I am researching relatives from Cork and Belfast.
Mary Barry maiden name Lyons born in Cork in the early 1900s.
I'm searching for siblings of Mary Lyons.
I'm not sure of the parish she attended.
Mary had 4 children and we are in touch with one of her granddaughters but we have reached a brick wall.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    Do you know the names of Mary's parents so we can search for her birth record and records for possible siblings.

    I am in search of my aunt's birth father.
    His name was Michael Lyons born in the 1920s. Michael could be his middle name. My aunt thinks his family lived in Belfast in the 40s.
    I'm thinking it was one of young Mary's neice or nephews son. Because my aunt has a high DNA match with Mary's daughter. He was in the navy.
    Apparently he passed away 1943 or 44 before my aunt was born. She was born in new Brunswick Canada.

    Thank you Roger

    This appears to be the civil birth record for Mary  https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1899/02013/1773026.pdf   Civil records are available at the free site www.irishgenealogy.ie  However, birth records are only available online up to 1918 because of the 100 year rule. So you won't find Michael Lyons online.

  • Thank you
    I believe Michael was a nephew of Mary. I'm guessing either Patrick or Jeremiah's son. I'm getting close. It say Patrucknwas born in 1887 and Jeremiah in 1888.
