Hi !
Has anyone any information re a Frances Ledwidge, [possible daughter of Michael Ledwidge and Frances Carey ] born circa 1841 in Dublin. who married a Thomas Kenny on the 3rd August 1863 at St James Church in Dublin ?
Many thanks

Harry:
The free site www.irishgenealogy.ie (Church Record TAB) has a May 8 1834 marriage between Michael Ledwich and Frances Carey. The church was the RC parish of St. Catherine.
There is a May 7 1837 baptismal record for a Maria Ledwidge with parents Michael Ledwidge and Francesca Carey. Church was St. Nicholas RC. There was a baptismal record for a Jane Ledwidge with father Michael and mother Frances Carey. RC church of St. James. Edwardus Ledwidge baptized December 13 1840 at St. Nicholas same parents. Bridget Ledwith March 25 1845 at St. James same parents.
I did not find a record for Frances Ledwidge/Ledwith. Likely there was a gap in records either at St. Nicholas or St. James which covered the period when Frances was baptized.

On the same site referenced above is a baptismal record for Maria Anna Kenny on 8 Oct 1866 at SS. Michael & John RC church, Dublin. Parents are Thomas Kenny and Frances Ledwwige, and sponsors are Patrick Ledwidge and Jane Ledwith. Her DOB was 27 Sept 1866.
