I will be visiting Ireland in August. I believe my grandfather was born in Terryglass, Tipperary Ireland on May 26, 1871. He came to the United States in 1889. His parents were Peter Carroll and Margaret Darcy.
Marriage of Peter Carroll to Margaret Darcy was registered in Borrisokane in 1867 Vol 13, page 309.
You can order a photocopy of the certificate from GRO Roscommon for €4 (euros). http://www.welfare.ie/en/Pages/Apply-for-Certificates.aspx
You have to download and print off the form. Then either post or fax it back to them. You can’t e-mail it to them. However if you want them to e-mail the cert to back to you, they will do that, so tick the relevant box.
Put the reference details on the form (anywhere). Don’t worry about leaving some boxes blank. As long as GRO have the location, name(s), year, quarter (where there is one), volume and page number they should find it.
Tradition was to marry in the bride’s church which should be on the certificate, (unless it was a Registry Office marriage). That church may be the place to look for her baptism and that of any siblings.
Do you have any information about Jeremiah Carroll who I believe was baptized on May 25, 1871 in the diocese of Killaloe in the parish of Terryglass and Kilbarron. How would I find out the address of where the family may have lived at that time. Also if there were any siblings for Jeremiah. Thank you so much for any assistance you may be able to provide to me. I have made a donation to support your great work.
Betty:
I will alert our parish liaison in Terryglass that you have posted a message.
