His Father was Charles McGee Born June 9, 1837 Died April 10,1876

His Mother was Julia O'Connor McGee Born April 6, 1839 Died Feb 20, 1884

I wastold that my Grandmother Mary Ryan McGee was born on March 14,1877 inCountyKilkenny

Her Father was James Ryan Born ? Died October 16, 1918

Her Mother was Alice Daly Born ? Died October 8, 1911

Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Sincerely,

Patrick McGee

Hi Patrick

You may want to have a look on www.rootsireland.ie/

There are Charles McGee baptisms 1835 & 1839

I chercked the parish and the 1835 was from CLOUGH so perhaps this was mis-transcribed at some stage. 

There is also a parish called CLARA but none of them were from there.

I couldn't find Charles's marriage however.

ancestry.com has a few public member trees with Charles's parents as Edward McGee & Mary.
