Mary Ellen O'Donnell Family

Hi Nicole

Here are the birth/baptism records of children born to Stephen O'Donnell & Honor Kelly1862 + - 10 years on www.rootsireland.ie/:

http://Name: Patt Odonnell Date of Birth: 21-Oct-1869 Registration Date: Address: Derrybrine Parish/District: WOODFORD Gender: Male County Co. Galway Denomination: Civil Parish / District Father: Stephen Odonnell Mother: Honor Kelly Occupation: Farmer Sponsor 1 / Informant 1: Honor Odonnel

http://Name: Stephen Odonnell Date of Birth: 03-Apr-1871 Registration Date: Address: Derrybrine Parish/District: WOODFORD Gender: Male County Co. Galway Denomination: Civil Parish / District Father: Stephen Odonnell Mother: Honor Kelly Occupation: Farmer Sponsor 1 / Informant 1: Honor Odonnell

No sign of Mary I'm afraid!

I couldn't find the parents' marriage record either.

There are 2 Stephen O'Donnell baptism records from Galway - 1828 Rahoon & 1833 Kilcummin Oughterard

There are 13 for Honor Kelly in Galway 1833 + - 2 years in Galway including a couple from Rahoon & Oughterard

Nicole:

The RC church records for Ballynakill/Derrybrien are not on Roots Ireland. (They do have the marriage records starting in 1854). The only records you will find on Roots will be the civil records which start in 1864 and Col located two records as noted above.

Later this summer the National Library of Ireland plans to place all RC parish registers online for free searching. I would check out the Ballynakill/Derrybrien records at that time.

I was able to locate Stephen and Hanora  in the 1901 census in Derrybrien South townland in Kileenadeema civil parish which is just to the west of Ballynakill parish in south Co. Galway.

I also located the 1911 census and Stephen was still alive and Hanora had passed away.

I could not locate a civil death index record for Hanora or Stephen.
