Hannah White born in Ireland in 1893 possibly July. I would like to find her mothers maiden name.
Thanks

You can search the census here for free and look for her mother and father and if youre very lucky they may have the mother inlaw living with them!

Karen...Only 10 Hannah White's listed 1901 Ireland...for the year of Birth ? 1893 brings that figure down to 3.....If you know she was still in Ireland 1901 then you can reduce that further by Religion and Area....
Also 2 Hannah "WHYTE"......worthwhile checking alternate spelling if you cannot locate a Hannah White

Karen...Dont worry none of us were very good when we started..!! Some of us still not very good ...!!
Try this www.census.nationalarchives.ie
Free to search and download...
Any problems just ask...
Do you need someone to look for anything else for you...?
If so just add the details to your thread...
What was Hannah's fathers name...?

Karen...Ask away.... as many questions as you need to...
There are a number of sites which may help but possibly the easiest for you to use at present is www.familysearch.org when it opens up use the drop down menu and click on Pilot Site....put in any details you may have and see what it brings up.....
