Breen Family

Hi

Thank you for your message.

Civil registration records are available from the General Register Office (GRO). These start from 1864. You can access the website here: http://www.groireland.ie/research.htm

Valuations office in Dublin (http://www.valoff.ie) will have a record of the land registry from 1855 to modern times. This will assist in seeing what happened to any land the family may have owned (as it usually passed on to a relation).

Some sites that may be helpful are:

The National Archives of Ireland http://www.nationalarchives.ie/genealogy1/genealogy-records/introduction/

Also include information concerning which sources you may have already used so others may further your search.

Kind regards,

I understand that this post is old, but I may have some information for your search. I may have some information on Peter Breen (b.1867)

I'm currently doing some searching myself (and have been for quite some time), reply here and maybe we can find a platform to discuss this on. 

Hi,

Thank you for your response. I have found additional information regarding Peter Breen since I posted this message, but I am always open to sharing what I've found and learning more.  Are you a direct descendant of Peter Breen?

Best,

Dana
