Kate Bolan of Hollyford

TipperaryTemplebeg (Tipperary)

Hello there,

My great grandmother was Kate (or perhaps Catherine Bolan) who was born in 1860 in Hollyford. Are there any Bolan's still living there. I am trying to find out who her parents were so that I can trace them to England. She married my great-grandfather Henry Brown in Richmond, Surrey in 1877. I would be so greatful if anyone has any information about them.

Thanks Joyce Pawley

Joyce:

I looked at the Roots Ireland indexes and they have an 1860 baptismal record for a Catherine Bolan (or variant) in the Kilcommon RC parish which includes Hollyford. The parents names were Brian and Margaret. 

Roots is a subscription site. You may want to wait until next summer when the National Library will have the RC parish registers online for free searching.
