Mullally/Dixon
I am researching Dixon /Mullally .
Patrick Mullally married Mary Harpur, they lived in Enniscorthy, their daughter Mary Eliza Mullally married PTE James Dixon in parish of St Michael Gorey, it stated James Dixon was a native of Gorey but lived in Queenstown as he was a soldier. on the 15th February 1917. They had 5 children,
Moira/Mary, Anna Maria, Thomas,
James born 15 July 1921 in Drumgoold Wexford
Patrick born 24th February 1924 in Drumgoold Wexford.
Mary Dixon my grandmother died on 10 march 1924 a month after Patrick was born.
I have not been able to find birth certificates for of the three children one is my mother Anna Maria, I am assuming this is her correct name, the children were all put into industrial schools except for Thomas who i believe lived with the Mullally's and took there surname. I do not know what happened to my Grandfather James Dixon.
I have contacted the Registary Office in Ireland and they informed me that they could not find birth certificate for my mother Anna Maria, although i have found a note saying that she was Baptized I do not know where this took place?
My mother died in 1959 when i was five and I have been researching for about 25 years to no avail or met with brick walls. i would be grateful if anyone has any knowledge or information to help me learn my mother and family history thankyou
