Mary Gallagher & Anthony Barrett

Mayo

Hi,

I am looking for the birth record of Anthony Barrett and the death record of Mary Gallagher. She was married to Anthony Barrett and they lived Mayo, they had a son called John in 1884.

Thank you!

Anthony was born before civil registration started in 1864. There are baptismal records for Anthony Barrett in Mayo pre-1864 but we need to know his parents names to confirm a record.

See fourth record for likely death record for Anthony Barrett https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1923/05043/4380070.pdf

See fifth record for likely death record for Maria(Mary) Gallagher Barrett.https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/deaths_returns/deaths_1921/05101/4401405.pdf

Luke,

On the paid site Roots Ireland, the following births show for Anthony Barrett and Mary Gallagher (these will also be on the irishgenealogy.ie site for free...

Michael 1 Aug 1872, no residence, Ballysakerry/Cooneal parish

Bridget 8 Jun 1874, Netley, Ballysakerry/Cooneal RC parish

Margaret 7 Dec 1876 Lauvlyer, Ballysakerry/Cooneal parish

Anthony 30 Nov 1878, no residence given

Edward 16 Aug 1881, Lawlyer, Ballysakerry/Cooneal parish

John 14 Sep 1884, Greenwood, Ballysakerry/Cooneal parish

I could not find a civil marriage record for them which is odd given the years of their children's births. Anthony's occupation is farmer in all the births, so I am not sure if that 1931 death record that Eileen posted in your other post is correct as that Anthony is a blacksmith. I looked for Mary Gallagher's birth in the possible range, and found one possibility - Mary Gallagher, 17 Dec 1844, Ballyskerry/Cooneal, parents - Michael Gallagher & Ann Gallagher.

Regards,

Carolyn
