Hi was wondering if anyone had access to irish records i need to find out if my mum had a sibling called Carmel Broughton who i think was born either 1945 or 1946. Her father name would be john broughton and her mothers name was lavinia higginbotham. My mum was born in Limerick in July 1946 and she may of been her twin??? many thanks in advance

Hi was just wondering if someone could help me find out some details about my great grandad. All I know is that he was born around 1995 and I presume in Ireland as my Mum was born in Limerick. He had a son in 1914 called John Bernard Broughton. On the marriage certificate to my nan it say he was an able seaman in the merchant navy. Many thanks in advance. Eve

He was born 1895 not 1995 sorry was a mistake

Ah well according to that he must have been born 1885 roughly. Thanks for your help. Did it say his mothers maiden name as don't know what Thomas's wife was called

It's all too confusing ??

You need a copy of his Birth Cert. above was reference to it, link was for ordering.

Irish certificates can be purchaed through here:

http://www.groireland.ie/ For Southern Ireland (Eire)

http://www.groni.gov.uk/index.htm For Northern Ireland BDM’s

I know for Souther Ireland, you have the option to have a certificate printed on a blank piece of paper which is cheaper than having it printed on the Official appropriate BDM Certificate. The information given is identical.
