Looking for information on Denis Short and his parents Thomas Shortt and Mary Loughnane.  Denis was born either 1812 or 1820 in Roscrea.

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    We have a parish liaison for Roscrea and I will alert him that you have posted a message. Let me know if you have not heard back in two weeks or so.

  • Debbie,

    Apologies for not getting back to you sooner - for some reason or other I only got news of your post when you recontactd Jane as you had gotten no news at all. 

    I'm currently going through the online parish registers and have found two siblings of Denis - I still have to find him! (https://registers.nli.ie/parishes/0805 ) is the link to the early Roscrea online registers -  you can download any page you want.  The first sibling I found was Elizabeth Shortt - baptised 18th October 1810 and the next I have found is Mary Shortt baptised 5th September 1815.  I'll continue to seach for Denis and any others.  I will send you information as I come across it.  Unfortunately, these records in this particular register don't include an address just the names of the baptised chidren, their parents, and the sponsor(s)/godparent(s).  I'll see if I can locate Thomas and Mary's Wedding Certificate but I can't promise you I'll find it.

    Regards,

    Dick

  • I have not heard anything back regarding Denis Short.  I don't know if there is nothing more to report.  I was hoping to hear if you found anything on his parents as well.  If any marriage records exist.  I so enjoy this site. Hope to hear from you soon.
