Hello, my gg g/p's Michael Coyne & Mary Ferguson were married abt 1841. I believe in Backs, Killala, Mayo. I am hoping for information of their birth or baptismal records as well as their parents names.

Thanks in advance for any possible information.

Sincerely,

Denny McFadden

    No records for Michael before 1830

    Earliest baptisms in the R C registers (suggested in my answer to your previous post) are 1840 so too late for Michael I'm afraid

  • Denny:

    The townland shown in the marriage record from Col is Colladussaun in Kilbelfad civil parish. I looked up the 1855 Griffiths Valuation head of household listing for the parish and there was a Michael Coyne listed in Carrowgarve townland and a number of Fergusons in Colladussaun. http://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths/mayo/kilbelfad.htm

    This may be your Michael and Mary in the 1901 census in Carrowgarve. Not there in 1911 so they likely had died.
