Looking for Irish born Jane O'Shea and Robert Robinson

KildareBallysax (Kildare)

I have great grandparents Robert G Robinson and Jane O'Shea that were born in Ireland - I have no idea where but it would be earlier than 12/17/1995.  Robert and Jane had a son named Walter Daniel that was born in USA on 12/17/1895 and died 2/6/1959 and buried in Sunset Buriel Park, St. Louis, Missouri.  Robert G Robinson and Jane O'Shea were listed on Walter D Robinson's death certificate as his parents.

 

I do not know where to go next or how many parishes to sign up in.

 

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hello Pat,

Many of the church records can be found online at two sites. www.rootsireland.ie and www.irishgenealogy.ie.

I have searched for a marrige between Robert Robinson and Jane O Shea but to now avail.  Is it possible that they were married in the US?  Have you tried looking at civil records there for that marriage? I have found numerous baptismal  records on both sites for Robert, but without parents names it is impossible to know which one to follow up.  If you could get your hands on a marriage cert it may contain this info.  Worth a search !!

Have you looked at the records at www.ellisisland.org and www.castlegarden.org?

Hope this helps a little,
