Richard Corish - trying to trace my granddad
Hello - I am trying to trace my grandfather Richard Corish. I have searched the online records but have found 3 Richard Corish's born around the same time and in the same area of Wexford. My mum Philomena emigrated to England in 1951 and she sadly died in January this year and I can findno details of my Irish relatives in her records.
What I know forcertain about Richard is that he was married to Mary Hore on 24 April 1918 in Wexford and they had 6 children, my mum Philomena, Gertrude, Evelyn, John, Joseph, and another daughter whose name I don't know. I beleive all of the childrean are now deceased. My Grandmother Mary died on 24th July 1981 in Wexford town. My mum was born in 1933 and her birth certificate states "Wexford, Ballyteague"
I only have an estimate for Richard'sbirth date and based on that I have found some census records but it is unclear which Ricahrd Corish is which! I beleive the most likely candidate is Richard Corish born in 1892 to Thomas and Elizabeth and showing as living at House 11, Bargy, Grange, Kilmore, Wexford on the 1901 census. He then shows up again in the 1911 census at House no 4, Bargy, Grange, Kilmore, Wexford.
I really need to find Richard's grave (he died in the 1950s) as I woudl like to inter my mothers ashes with or near him if I can and wouldvery much like to contact my realtives about this. I would also love to find outmore about my family and am hoping to come over from the UK in spring next year. I attach the only photo I know of of my granddad. Any help or clues anyone can give me would be really appreciated. Many thanks. Lorraine
