Hi all, am trying to find out any info about my great grandmother, I can find no clue to her other then marriage and death. It's her birth certificate and parents I'd love to find out about, the name she went by was ellen Pendergast. Born county Clare.. around 1905. Her father may be a Thomas Pendergast. Occupation Train Porter. Any help would be great thank you
Hi Rachel
Welcome to IrelandXO.
There were a number of variations of Prendergast Surname.
This is a link to an Ellen Pender born in 1901 to Thomas Pender & Jane Keane. https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_retur…
There had a large family of 13, all still alive at the time of the 1911 Census http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Clare/Einagh/Moyasta/3…
Thomas Pender is listed as a Railway Porter on the Census return.
