Hi All,
My great grandparents Michael and Mary Coghlan were married at St Nicholas church, Dublin in 1879 before coming over to Glasgow and then settling in Manchester. I know his parents were John and Mary Coghlan and he was born in 1859 and hers were Thomas and Catherine Grace and she was born in 1861, but I would love to know more about the family in Ireland and whether there were any brothers and sisters. I think they had a daughter called Mary Catherine who was born and died in 1880 in Dublin and I know about the family in England but I would be grateful for help in finding more about the family in Ireland.
Thank you Pat O'Kell

Pat it may be worth Emailing the Church.As they may have more details on the Families
 
Fr. Paul Kenny is Administrator of the Parish. Paul can be contacted at 01-4542109 or on the Parish Mobile: 086-4035318 & [email protected]
 
If we Have correct Thomas Grace,Then he must have had Some sort of Business Carmens Hall is off Francis Street in Dublin
 
That is where The Church is

Hi Mike,
I have actually contacted St Nicholas church as I knew that Michael and Mary were definately married there and they kindly checked for me and told me that they were married on 21st Sept 1879 and his address was 144, Francis St and hers was 8, Binns Court. Thats how I found out their parents names.
A cousin told me that they thought Marys father had a bellows business, but I dismissed it as I was never told anything about it and as I know that she signed her name on my Granny's birth certificate with a cross I thought that meant that she must have been poor. However it is very interesring what you say about Carmens Hall.
I didn't want to bother Fr Paul again by asking about John and Mary Coghlan and Thomas and Mary Grace but how do I join the Irish family history foundation?
Thanks for your help.
Pat

Hi pat If she signed with a Cross it ment she was unable to read or Write.
 
If you Contact Father Paul again Im sure Because he checked the original Doc for you.He would Look for the Others.These Priests are Really nice.
Offer to send a small Donation.I am sure he will help
 
The irish family History foundation is free to join But they charge 5 Euro for Records.
Its not to bad.
You can do a free Check first.
Will send Details

Hi Mike
I've been in contact with some cousins to see if they knew any more about our irish connections and one of them said he went to Ireland in 1948 with his parents and grandmother (Michael and Mary's daughter Annie) and they stayed in Sallynoggin, near Dun Laoghaire with relatives, but unfortunately he didnt remember how they were related. He said one cousin was surnamed Coghlan so obviously he was related to Michael. I see that the church there has been replaced so is there any way of finding the records from the old church? In 1948 I believe the church was St Kevins but that was only built in 1927 so I dont know what was there before.
Thanks for your help.
Pat

Pat it may be worth contacting the Gro ,To see if they can get you any certs needed.
If the church has been closed,i would think the records would have gone to the nearest church,not sure what denomination they were but take it as Catholic
