Good morning,

I am searching for the birth record of my great great grandmother, Margaret Drennan.

Her marriage to John Boyle on 22nd July, 1863 in Donaghadee, County Derry, indicated that Margaret was born in 1835 but my searches have been fruitless.

John Boyle was born in Kilcolman Asdee, County Kerry in 1836 and he was a ship's carpenter, which I guess was the reason he'd moved to Donaghadee. They later moved to  Dumbarton, Scotland before emigrating to Adelaide, South Australia when my great grandmother Margaret young.

Any suggestions or help would be gratefully received.

    A suggestion. You should put the name of the person you are searching for in the subject line. That way others searching Drennans will pick up you message if they do a surname search.

    Roots Ireland has baptismal records for Newtownards staring in 1837. I searched for a Margaret Drennan baptismal record and got no records so likely if she was baptized in 1835, no record is available.
