Mary Anne Walsh

DublinGarristown (Dublin)

Hi

I am enquiring about information on my great grandmother. Her name was Mary Anne Walsh (1976-??).

She was born in 16th November 1876 in Garristown to Patrick Walsh and Anna Blake. Mary Anne was baptised in Rolestown church 18th November.

She had a brother Jacob/James born in22 Apr 1880 inPluckhimin, Garristown.

In the 1901 census Mary Anne lived inGarristown.

On the 24 February 1903 Mary Anne married my great grandfather Richard Flood (1878-??) in Balrothery church.

Both Mary Anne and Richard moved to Dublin where they had 6 children but only 2 survived.

Richard 1903-1903

Patrick Joseph 1904-1905

James 1906-1907

Patrick 1907-1984 - My grandfather

Richard 1908-1981

In 1911 census they lived on Arran Quay in Dublin 7.

I am looking for information on the Blake and Walsh family that lived in Pluckheiman in Garristown. I have visited Garristown and found nothing in the cemetry there.

Thanks

Paul

REV JAMES SHERIDAN

Annoyingly there are no Walsh or Blake records in Dublin in the 1851 census! I also tried 1901 but no joy.

I couldn't find any birth/baptism records on roots for either Patrick or Anna with the above-named parents in any year or county; no siblings either.

Possible marriage for Pat's parents:

Date of Marriage:16-Jun-1836

Hi Col,

Thanks for looking into this for me.

i found in the 1901 census Mary Anne living with her brother James in Pluckimin but no sign of her parents.

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Garristown/Pluc…

Its really difficult to find anything after the census in 1901 for the Walsh family. 

i may start checking te Meath records as some of the record i found had Garristown Co Meath in it.

I do know Mary Anne when she married my great grandfather lived in Smithfield in Dublin 8 but nothing else after my grandfather and his brother moved to Tipperary. 

Regards

Paul
