Hi,
I'm traveling over to Roscommon in early September and was look for further details of my relatives both from Roscommon /Boyle area
James Ford B1829 Roscommon D Warwickshire 1893
Catrine Bates B 1836 Roscommon D Unknown
Margret Ragen B1837 Boyle D 1913 Boyle
Thanks in anticipation
Tom,
Do you know their parents' names? "Ragen" might be "Regan"....Roots Ireland has a Margaret Regan born 20 Feb 1835, RC parish of Boyle to parents Edward Regan and Anne Murray. Sponsors are Andrew Cullen and Mary Murray. For the other two, do you know where in Roscommon they were from? Also, did Margaret die a spinster in 1913 as I did not locate her 1913 death record under Ragen or Regan.
Regards,
Thanks for response
Its stating that Margret parents where Patrick Ragen and Hannah Ragen...DOB unknown
Margaret would have been a Kelly or Kelley in 1913
Tom:
The subscription site Roots Ireland has a February 17th 1855 marriage between Margaret Regan and Thomas Kelly in the RC parish of Ballaghaderreen.

Thank you
That's defiantly them.
Tom:
Roots Ireland has a February 22 1829 baptismal record for a James Ford in the Boyle RC parish. Father Eugene Ford mother's name transcribed as Catherine Nara.
No Catherine Bates' baptismal records but there is a January 26 1863 marriage record in the Ballybay RC church for a Catherine Bades to a Patrick Kilmartin.
Roger
