Looking for Finns in county Mayo

Marybeth:

Please take a look at this 1879 birth record (eighth record at the link)   https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1879/02903/2063576.pdf

Is this record for your Delia?

Roger McDonnell

Bridget/Delia had the following siblings, according to RootsIreland.

Mary  1881

Catherine 1883

Margaret 1885

Patrick 1888

Bryan 1890

Winifred 1893

NL  1895

John Martin 1896

The family lived in the Catholic parish of Bekan; the civil district of Ballhaunis; and the townland of Reask.  See https://www.townlands.ie/mayo/costello/bekan/bekan/reask/

I hope this is helpful.

Here you can see the family in the 1901 Irish census, living in Erriff townland. Bryan is called “Bernard Bryan” in the transcript, but on the actual page he is called Bernard.  The two names were interchangeable.

Here they are in the 1911 census:

Thank you Patricia for your time in looking up this family.  I am fairly new to Irish genealogy and wouldn't know where to start, but another kind person put me onto this site.

Thank you again,

Marybeth

Thank you also to Roger Mcdonnell for your time in looking up Delia's birth, very grateful
