Donohue/Nolan Families of Kinvara

I suspect this may be Michael Donohue in the 1911 census:

That same household in 1901:

Griffiths Valuation for 1855 shows a Michael Donohue farming there, on plot 3 , which was a house and 3.5 acres of land (subsistence farming).  That?s about 4 miles north of Gort, on a minor road near the Limerick to Athenry railway line. Easy enough to locate today with a decent map.

Hi Sally

Are either of Anne's parents names on the marriage certificates?

It will make the search for siblings a lot easier.

Hi Col,

My main problem is I cannot confirm the dates of the Marriages.  I have searched Ancestry.co and the closest I have come to getting a Match was

A Michael McCormack marrying a Mary Nolan in Q2 1919 in Dublin.  Which is 3 months before Mary McCormack was born.

According to Mary's Birth Certificate, the birth was registered in Gort, Kinvara, Galway and her Father was Michael McCormack a Farmer of Crushoa, Kinvara. 

The Second Marriage of Anne to Michael Donohue.  The only Marriage I have found is in 1941 in Gort, where there appears to be Anne Nolan and Anne McCormack marrying a Michael Donohue.  This is however 13 years after their daughter Bridget was born.  Bridget's Birth Certificate states her Parents were living in Raheen.

So it is all very confusing.

Any thoughts would be most welcome.

Sally

Thanks for the info.

I agree the 1911 looks really positive, not quite sure about the 1901 the ages are so way out but they never were that accurate on the Census's.

Thanks again for your help

Hi Sally

No luck with the marriage records on rootsireland or www.irishgenealogy.ie

However there is a public member tree (Murphy O'Hara Arnold McCormack) on ancestry that has Nellie Nolan (born 01/01/1905 - no location) marrying Michael McCormack - no marriage details! (born 1905 Kilrush Clare). Nellie died 1996 - no place given.
