I am searching for relations of my great great grandmother who was born in Co. Longford in or about 1847.
Her name is Ellen McBride and her parents Mark McBride and Annie Egan.
Ellen travelled to Australia and married here in 1871 in Kyneton Victoria to Thomas Jenkins.
Can anyone assist in my search please
Maureen from Australia
Maureen:
This is not a lot of help but I checked the 1854 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for Co. Longford and there was only one McBride a Thomas McBride who lived in Lissavaddy townland in Killoe civil parish. I also checked Roots Ireland for a possible baptismal record for an Ellen McBride around 1847 with no success.
