Bartholomew Brady was born abt 1837 County Meath and died in Australia 1888. I am trying to find information on his parents Patrick Brady and Honora Kane. I have no information on the parents at all and I am hoping someone can find them and give me some information.

I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland for all of Ireland and could not locate a baptismal record for a child of Patrick Brady and a wife with the maiden name of Kane. Almost all of the Co. Meath RC parishes have baptismal records prior to 1837 so possibly Bartholomew was baptized in one of the parishes with later starting records. As an aside, there was an 1837 Bartholomew Brady baptismal record but the parents names were different.
Have you considered DNA testing?

Thank you Roger, I wonder what the parents of the other Bartholomew Brady were as I might have the wrong parents.
I have had a DNA test. I am 73% Irish, 4% Scottish, 1% Welsh and 22% European. I have an Irish ancestor who was a convict and it's easy to find information on him but I am having trouble finding information on my other Irish immigrants.
Thanks again,
Colleen
