Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

The Strokestown RC records start in 1830. I located baptismal records in Roots Ireland for Mary, Catherine, Brigid and Anne but could find no marriage record.

I checked the 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Lissonuffy civil parish and did not see a record for Thomas Elwood but there was a Michael Noone in Coggalfortyacres townland possibly your ancestor.

There were three Noon/Noone families in the 1901 census for Coggalfortyacres. Not sure how they are connected to Bridget and Michael. http://census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Roscommon/Cloonfinlough/Co…

Let me know if you have any questions.
