Hi Tugguy
Mary Shine was born a couple of years earlier , she was born in the townland address ''Commons'' in Newmarket on the 1st March 1873, her father was James P Shine and mother Catherine Lane.
James and Catherine had more children
Jeremiah baptised 11 July 1863 in Newmarket, his twin Patrick
Catherine July 1865 , James born 24 May 1867 Commons Newmarket, Johanna 3 April 1871, Honora 27 August 1874, Denis Feb 1880, Humphrey born 1 March 1882, and finally Elizabeth 22 August 1883
I am unable to find a marriage record for James and Catherine Lane
All these records can be found on www.rootsireland.ie a subscription website
Wow, thank you so much for this info. I was actually at my Grandmother Mary Shine's property a few years back, and remember the address ", "commons", it was just outside of the town of Newmarket. Thank you so much.

If I may ask another question....I tried to track down the present owners of my Grandmother's birthplace, I used a site called "Land direct". The latest record I could find was it was owned in 1960 by a Denis Shine, which from the info you sent me, could very well have been my great Uncle. How would I go about finding the present owner of that property?
Any info will be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.

Hi Mark
Do you have an exact address of the property? If it is a freehold you will not be able to find owners, only the registry of deeds have that information this is not public. Only option is to speak to the locals really
When I can I will check that out. Thank you once again for all your help.
