Hello again!

 

I located the transcription of the 1825 marriage record which is below. I also found baptismal records for threee children Mary 1831 John 1835 Martin 1837 Here is a link to the Elphin register http://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0556  Perhaps you can look for Thomas and see the entries for the other three children.

Thanks again Roger.

I have downloaded the 3 baptisms and the marriage you mentioned and finally know which townland they lived in - Flask - which I presume is either Flask Beg or Flask More. I couldn't find a baptism for Thomas either. What a wonderful resource these Catholic records are.

Are the rent rolls that cover the townland of Flask available anywhere?

Thanks again for your help.

Helen

Hello word love to get the images of the reocrds from you Helen that you got for Michael FLANAGAN and Bridget Hoggs Marriage and the baptims of their three children Mary 1831 John 1835 Martin 1837.  I find it very difficult to read the Elphin register.  I live in Australia and Michael and Bridget are my 4th Great Grandparents.  My email address is shereelouise60@hotmail.com for anyone to reply to this posting.
