Family of Daniel and Elizabeth O'Reilly Belturbet

CavanDrumlane (Cavan)

I am looking for some of the children of Daniel (died 1865) and Elizabeth O'Reilly (died 1884). I know that some of them migrated to USA (John, Hugh and Daniel?) and Australia (Rose and Peter). I also know that Elizabeth died (1882) as a young adult and is buried with her Mother Elizabeth at Drumlane Parish. The focus of my research is on the following children:I would like to know if there are any marriages, baptism or deaths recorded forAnne, Terence and Ellen (all born either in the 1840s or early 1850s)

Also is there a marriage recorded for Daniel O'Reilly and Elizabeth (nee Carraher / Callaher?). It would possibly be circa 1840.

Thanks in advance

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I'm going to assume that your ancestors were Roman Catholic. Below is the link to the Drumlane RC parish register. Baptismal records are available from 1836 to early 1881 and marriage records from 1837 to 1880. You may want to scan the register for marriage records for the three children you mentioned. The register does not have death information.

I checked Roots ireland and for 1835-1845 and did not see a church marriage record. I searched from 1840-1860 for baptismal records for children of Daniel and Elizabeth. I only found two records one in 1856 for a Daniel and one in 1858 for Hugh. Both were in the Annagh/Belturbet RC parish just to the east of Drumlane. Below is the register for Annagh/Belturbet. Let me know if you have questions.
