My family is the O'Haras but I can't find barely any trace of them being married or the children being born anywhere. The only thing I have is them in 1881. John and Jane O'Hara, children Margaret, John and Robert, living in Newcastle upon Tyne. I then have them in 1891, again in Newcastle, but that's it ! Cannot find any births or marriages for these people ! Any suggestions ?? Marie x

Might be worth looking at the earlier thread called Mistranscribed ? which gives an idea of the dates of birth etc. Good luck Maureen

Hi Freebmd If you search under OHARA it brings up only bmd's in Liverpool. But if you spell it O'Hara it brings up loads. I've had a look on the 1901 Census but not having much luck sorry. Regards Cheryl x
