Looking for Dolan Family

Meghan:

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I searched the subscription site Roots Ireland and located Michael Dolan's baptismal record in Ballinlough RC parish. The trancription is below and shows he was born on September 8, 1863. I need to check the register and see if that was the baptismal date. Baptisms normally occurred soon after a birth.The transcription shows Clooncallagee as the townland which is likely Clooncalgy or Clooncalgy Beg or Clooncalgy More all in Kiltullagh civil parish not far from the Mayo border. Michael had four older siblings: John 1856 Honor 1857 Patrick 1859 Mary Anne 1861 and a younger sister Margaret 1866. I was unable to locate a marriage record. I checked the 1901 census records and found the family. Peter had died but Ellen was living with her son Patrick and his family. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Roscommon/Ballinlough/Clooncalgy_More/1663560/     Here is the 1911 census  http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Roscommon/Ballinlough/Clooncalgy_More/760234/

Let me know what questions you have.

I searched on the free site www.irishgenealogy.ie and located a 1919 civil death record for Ellen Dolan. It shows that she was 79 although the 1911 census had her listed as 90.

I did not locate a good record for Peter Dolan.
