Hello. Looking for some information please on my ancestor James Dwyer born about 1779 in Limerick (maybe baptised St Mary's). I think he married Cath Savage. Any other info would be appreciated - parents names of both James and Cath, residence, dates of death, etc. Thank you

    Hello again!

    I attached your other message for background. So the 1779 James was the father of the 1799 James? The subscription site Roots Ireland had a 1799 baptismal record for a James Dwyer with mother Catherine Savage and I also located a 1779 baptismal record for a James Dwyer in the same parish. I also located a 1789 marriage for James Dwuyer and Catherine Savage. Looks like there are baptismal records for nine other children including another James in 1801 which implies that the 1799 James died? Which also means that the James Dwyer who married in 1816 may have been 15? You may want to get a short-term subscription to Roots Ireland to sort out the connections.
