Hi There

I have been searching for ancestors of my father. His name was Patrick Joseph Sherry, born in 1904. He was in a workhouse in Monaghan. Recently through DNA we are finding we are connected to the Parr's in Cavan. Wondered if anyone had any suugestions? Thanks

  • While this doesn't answer your query about Carrs, here is some info I found. You might already have the baptismal record.

    From rootsireland…
    PATRICK JOSEPH SHERRY
    Baptized 31-Mar-1904
    At Workhouse, Monaghan
    Father not listed
    Mother Mary Sherry
    Sponsor: Sarah Madden
    Rev. Hugh O'Neill. 'child illigitimate - conditional baptism'.

    This might be Patrick and his mother in 1911:

  • Thanks Patricia

    I have a copy of the baptismal record but haven't seen that 1911 census. Thanks for your reply.
