Would someone please advise me if it is possible to get a copy of a Will for a relative who died in 1989.

Also I am trying to confirm that Michael Coleman who married Anne Quinlan around 1901 and is shown as living in Tullamore on the 1911 census is the the son of Joseph Coleman from O'moresforest.

Thank you in advance for any advice.

    Welcome back to Ireland Reaching Out!

    I can't help with the will question.

    I located the 1898 church marriage record (see below) on the subscription site Roots Ireland. I was unable to find a civil marriage record which as you know would show the fathers names. I also located the 1868 civil birth record and church record for the Michael Coleman born in Ballyfin parish in Co. Laois. Since the 1911 census record shows that Michael Coleman was born In Co. Laois, and  the oldest son is Joseph, I think there is a lot of evidence to link the 1868 Michael Coleman to the Michael Coleman in the 1911 census.  I did find the 1905 death record for Esther Coleman and the 1913 death record for Joseph Coleman but the informants were not Michael Coleman.
