Hello, I'm looking for a birth or baptismal certificate for my relative, Mary Sexton. We think she was born in Maitwon Melby or Mullough, County Clare. Various records indicate she was born in 1876, 1878, 1881, or 1882. He parents were James Sexton and Johanna (sometimes referred to as Maria) Markam. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

AdrianD,
The town in County Clare is actually called Miltown Malby. There are a number of Sextons living there in 1901 as per the census. see: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/results.jsp?census_year=1901&surname=sexton&firstname=&county=Clare&townland=&ded=Miltown+Malby&age=&sex=&search=Search&relationToHead=&religion=&education=&occupation=&marriageStatus=&birthplace=&language=&deafdumb=&marriageYears=&childrenBorn=&childrenLiving=
However, In the townland of Doonagan in Mullough County Clare there is a family of Sextons, headed by James and with a daughter called Maria. see: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Clare/Mullough/Doonagan/1079248/
Might be interesting?
Regards,
Kevin
