WE are coming to ireland 3rd May 2013 looking for info around Charles town County Mayo, farm labourer John Flannery born 1847 and his son Patrick flannery born 1865-1867 we know what happened to Patrick want to find his family mother possibly winifred marrage says he was born 1867 but research says 1865?
Thankyou
David Flannery
Hi
Roots Ireland (www.rootsireland.ie) have 2 Patrick Flannery civil birth/baptism records for a child Patrick born to a father John Flannery in Co. Mayo. If one or probably 2 of these records refer to your Patrick, particularly the civil birth record, it should include his mother's name and more importantly a townland in Charlestown. Unfortunately there are over 60 records of a John Flannery marriage but you could probably play around with the dates, eg if John was born circa 1847 he was probably aged between 25-45 when he married and if the Patrick birth record is accurate you can get his mother's pre-mariage name from it and lessen the time/money spent looking for a marriage through those 60-something on the list. Have a look if you get a chance it may lead to something
Good luck
