Searching for Ancestor

Christine:

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

Any chance she was baptized Elizabeth? The subscription site Roots Ireland has an 1826 Elizabeth Doyle baptismal record with father Terence in Avoca. See below

Thankyou for your reply, I did come across this entry, I am not sure if she was baptised as Elizabeth I only know what I have seen on the wedding certificate, her father was Terence and I dont know if that is a very common irish name, but I have noticed a lot of people seem to choose another name for some reason in those days, so she could be Elizabeth, do you have any suggestions on where I can go from here, anything is appreciated.

I found the info below can you tell me if the T/ in the address has any meaning, would there be any possibility of me following any thing up from this address 

Griffith Evaluation (Doyle Ellen T/bray - Main St. Bray Co. Wicklow)

Griffith Evaluation (Moore Michael - T/bray Main St. Bray Co. Wicklow)

Thanks heaps Christine

T would be town of Bray.

I looked at Roots ireland again and found the likely marriage reocrd for the parents of the 1826 Elizabeth Doyle. I did not find any baptismal recors for possible siblings. Here is a link to the Avoca parish register up to 1880.  https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0460

Roger

Date of Marriage:18-May-1823
Parish / District:AVOCA
County:Co. Wicklow
Husband Terence Doyle
Wife MarieMacdonald

Witness 1 Daniel Doyle
Witness 2 MariaQuin

I am assuming the mother's name change could be just due to legability do you think this is so, thankyou for your marriage info, I am now thinking she was Elizabeth not Ellen and this is why I have had trouble finding her. Thanks for the link I will try and find siblings in Tinahely and Bray parishes maybe they moved.

Hello Christine,

I stubbled across your post while Googling some family threads which I had given up on, having hit a deadend some years ago.

I beleive you may also be researching the root of my family tree. My name is Mark Moore and I am the GG Grandson of Michael and Ellen Moore, nee Doyle who arrived in Adelaide in 1852 on the Marshall Bennett. I hit a deadend when I tried to trace Michael and Ellen to Ireland, having given up upon also finding a Michael Moore and Ellen Doyle in County Wicklow, in the town of Bray, not knowing with any certainty whether there was a connection.

I would be pleased to share my family history/tree, as best I know it, although knowing nothing of the Ireland connection, but having some understanding post Micahel and Ellen's arrival in Adelaide.

Would be pleased to hear from you.

Kind regards, Mark.

Hi Mark, I would love to get any info you have on Michael and Ellen, you can contact me Email: christine.clarke50@bigpond.com
