My mom and I are looking for information about Thomas Hourey and Katherine Minton. Their daughter, Bridget, was born in Ballinasloe in 1827. Bridget married John Kelley (of Dysart) and moved to Madison, Wisconsin, USA. We have no dates for Thomas or Katherine. We are looking for birth/death dates and if possible their parents names and if possible dates.

Thanks in advance!

  • Hello again!

    The records for Ballinasloe RC parish start in September 1820 and are available on the subscription site Roots Ireland. I searched for Bridget's baptismal record and did not:find a record. I also looked at the Co. Roscommon records since Ballinasloe is right on the border but no success there either.

    I looked at the 1856 Griffiths Valuation head of household reocrds for Kilcloony civil parish which includes Ballinasloe and there were two Hoary records: John and Patrick who lived in the town.  https://www.failteromhat.com/griffiths/galway/kilcloony.htm  Not sure how they may be connected to Thomas.
