No parents' names on marriage cert to go back further unfortunately!

There are 14 James Egans in Tipperary in the Tithe Applotments (free at http://titheapplotmentbooks.nationalarchives.ie/) but none in Templemore.

There are 11 Shellys in Templemore (!820's & 30's)

There are no Tipperary records in the Irish Censuses until 1851& there are no James Egans in Tipp in 185; no Shellys either.

Thank you Col some of the infomation i had but quite a bit i did not know.

I am still getting used to this website as i am 79 and i do not have a young brain so it will take a while to get used to it.

I think i also said i will be in Templmore about April 2020.

Are you in Ireland ?

Hi Keith,

I'm not far behind you (75)!

I'm in Oz - north of Coffs Harbour; frequently visit Ireland as two kids there.

I suggest that you might like to post another message with Templemore mentioned in the heading as the Templemore experts can then assist you - they would not have seen your message with the heading Keith. Most parishes have a liaison person.

Good luck with it.

Col
