CAHILL and MOORE from GOLDEN, Tipperary

Hi Maree,

Thank you very much for your message. I hope that someone with information on the family makes a connection with you and helps you to further your research.

In the meantime, civil registration only began in Ireland in 1864. If Bridget was born in 1864 there should be a record of it in civil records. These are available are available from the General Register?s Office. Here is their website:

You can search the indexes to these records up to 1958 online at:

You could also try searching in church records for Bridget?s baptism record. Most Catholic records are held locally so you may need to write to the local parish priest for possible assistance. One website that you may find useful is the Irish Times where they give an overview of what records are available in specific parishes. It also shows you where copies of the records are available.
