Grace/Callaghan

KilkennyUrlingford (Kilkenny)

I am searching mainly for any information 're Mary Grace 1870 had my grandad Joseph Grace in 1903 in Clontubrid/Urlingford also James Callaghan 1873 we cannot find his birth records but his mother is listed as Bridget nee Armstrong. We have been told that she may not have been his birth mother but was taken as her own for someone else. We have Bridget giving birth to her previous children in Kilkenny workhouse. All further records show the family in Urlingford where numerous family still live.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I assume you have the 1906 marriage of Mary Grace to John Brennan, if not, the record is below along with the 1911 census for the family.

I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and located a possible birth record for Mary Grace. Also, looked for James Callaghan and found two possible records.
