Thank you so much for all your hard work - I had found them on the 1901 and 1911 census, but could not get back any earlier. Think this was because I had an incorrect surname for May.

I am so appreciative of all your help - hope I can return the favour one day.

Regards and renewed thanks

?????

As you can see, names have been latinised, Jacobus could be James.

EDIT: Mary's father is James according to the marriage record safc found.

Ireland, Selections of Catholic Parish Baptisms, 1742-1881

There are other possibilities, which is why I think you need to get the marriage cert for the name of Mary's father.

If you sent for the marriage cert, you would normally discover the name and occupation of Mary's father.

EDIT: OOPS - Father is James - as shown on the marriage record safc found.

Safc has posted the marriage details already, and here is the civil registration index version:

Name: Mary Byrne
Date of Registration: 1866
Registration district: Dublin South
Volume: 17
Page Number: 691

Name: George Borrow
Date of Registration: 1866
Registration district: Dublin South
Volume: 17
Page Number: 691

If you order through the Roscommon site, you can ask for a 4 euro photocopy of the cert, rather than a 20 euro official copy of the cert. It will give you the same details.

You can download a form to post or fax from this page:

Yes, that's what Ann said, but in same post she also said 'George was in the army'.
The records tally with George Borrow born Gravesend being in the 85th Foot, as per births or baptisms of James in Ireland, and the three children born in India.
