Hmmmm this is interesting so this could be Margaret's mother? but she was orignally british?...........maybe sent to Ireland as she was out of wedlock to keep it all hush hush?

the only Teahan that comes up in Cork of the right age to be Margaret's mother is a Christina J Teahan age 21 born England pupil at College

other Teahan's seem to come from Kerry.

It was my father who registered her death Love him to bits but to be honest he doesn't know his own true b/day & who his grandfather & grandmother was he said they died before he was born & bless him he is 71yrs old now

Karen - who registered your grandmother's death?

It's possible they got the date wrong.

The one I found is the closest to the dates you gave.

Hi Janet,

Thank you for that I have been searching all evening!! .....I will try that yes her maiden name was Teahan but I cannot find anything for 12th November 1914 which makes me think the year is wrong but from her death certificate it is not!..........but as she was a Illegitimate child could there be a mistake with the year or month who knows or was she a orphaned child kept so hush hush she was given the name Teahan some other way it rakes up alot of questions but either way I would like to know our routes

Karen - if you google GROIreland you will find the site where you can order birth, marriage and death certificates. They do not yet have an online ordering service.

You will find there is an online form to download and fill in and send off to the address given. Only cheques drawn on an Irish bank are accepted but you can pay by credit card.

Is TEAHAN your grandmother's maiden name?

I have found a POSSIBLE birth on the family search site, here is the link:

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#birthYear=1914;surname=teahan;givenName=margaret;p=recordResults;searchType=standard

I have found out my Galvin side of the family where they were living in Ireland etc thanks to Janet as I looked up the 1911 census I wish I could find more on my Grandmother who was born in Ireland as we believe a orphan or out of wedlock her birth day is the 12/11/1914 & her name is Margaret Teahan but I cannot find anything so far so if you can help here it would be useful to be able to complete my tree.

The 1911 Census for Ireland is online and free; perhaps this would help you in your search.

Google will find it.

Marriages Dec 1936 (97%)
Galvin Patrick J Teahan Hampstead 1a 1609

After Talking to my Dad he tells me that all of our family stayed in Ireland The only person to leave was my grandfather Patrick he left Ireland long before the war started & settled in Kilburn He Later met my Nan & they were both Married 1935-36 in Kilburn & had my father Jerrimiah & Nora My Grandad was a carpenter & Nan was a domestic/housemaid they were later called to serve in the army when war broke out.
Apparently we are also related to the Leary's who also Lived in Kilburn but I don't remember any of them. so it would be nice to know more on them to.
Danny my father's uncle stands out to as apparently he & his wife had many children although not knowing the exact amount but out of them all only 3 survived birth or infant death.
If you can help further with my trace I will be grateful
Thanks

I have some more info on my grandad (Patrick's) siblings

Danny Stayed in Ireland married Lilly May & had 2 children Bridget & Teddy.... Teddy got married young & Died we believe in his 20's he had severe learning difficulties & died Suddenly to a un diognosed condition he left behind his wife who I have no name of who inherited the house in the cork area Timmy is believed to have stayed in N ireland May went to America & had Helen & another child we believe Nora who I thought was Patricks sister is actually Timmy's Daughter & went to America.

All very confusing but I am hoping someone out there can help me further with all of this?

Doris,

I don't believe this to be my Grandad as he was born in Ireland we believe maybe wrong as he met my nan in Kilburn area we believe he was born around 1907 born as Patrick Joseph Galvin had 4 siblings by the names of Danny, Timmy, May & Nora no dates of birth but Nora went to live in the USA & we believe danny did to. Patrick was a carpenter.

We also believe that either my nan or grandad came from Knockraha in Cork Ireland

Any more info would be fantastic
Karen

This was the only death registration that I could find that might fit.

Death Registration Month/Year: May 2001
Age at death (estimated): 86
Registration district: Sheffield
Inferred County: Yorkshire

If it isn't the one, you need to find the correct one and obtain a death certificate.
In 2001 that should show amongst other details, the place and date of birth and also Margaret's maiden name.

Hi,

I would like to know a bit more about my granparents on my dad's side, my nan's name was Margeret I don't know her maiden name she was born in Ireland I think near or in Cork about 1920 give or take 5-10yrs she came to london & married Patrick Galvin who was born 1900 give or take 5yrs they had 2 children Nora & Jerry Patrick died when I was about 2yrs old so in about 1972 aged about 69 I think & Margeret died in 2001 in her 80's both buried in Harrow.

I just want to know a bit about their background & where I ascended from really I was very fond of my nan sadly though I never really knew my grandad although I have heard he was a lovely kind man.

If you can help in any way I would really appreciate it.

Thank you in advance.
Karen
