Re James Crowe

Looking for information re James Crowe who married Mary Downs / Downes before 1836.

Known children: James, Margaret, Patrick & Bridget.

James, Margaret & Patrick emigrated to Australia in the 1860s.

I searched on two different subscription sites and could not locate a marriage record for James and Mary and did not find baptismal records for any of their children. Likely the parish where they worshipped no longer has records back to the1840s which I presume is when these events occurred. Based on the two surnames, it is likely that the family was from CO. Clare with Co.Limerick as a second possibility.

Have you considered a DNA test?

Thank you Roger. They have Co. Clare on their death certificates but we are unsure which part of Co. Clare.

Kilmihil seems like a possibility.

And other parishes nearby.

We will continue searching.

 

Thank you again.
