Hi all listers:
I have certificates for some births and marriages. If I have day, month
and year I
have the certificates and if not it's an estimate from census. My
ggrandfather was Christopher CALLAGHAN born 1825 in Armagh Ireland. On 5 May
1881 in Rathwire, Killucan, Westmeath,Ireland he married Mary J. WARD born
about 1827 Armagh. They had the following children (from 1881 census). All
born in Consett, County Durham, England. Thomas 1854, Mary 1855, Christy
(male) 1859, William 1863, Daniel 1865, Henry1868.
Thomas was my grandfather. On 31 April 1883 he married Elizabeth Ann
TURNER born 18 Sept. 1862 in Blackhill, Benfieldside, County Durham. They
had the folowing children: Alice born 26 Dec. 1885 Consett, Mary Jane born
18 Feb. 1888 in Consett, William about 1890 Stockton-on-tees, County Durham,
Jonathan 14 July 1892 in Stockton-on-tees, and my father Frank (birth cert)
Francis (baptismal) born 26 July 1898 in a Union
Workhouse in Stockton-on-tees. Dad was sent to an orphanage 4 years
old
and to Canada when he was 13. Both his parents were in the workhouse when he
went to the orphanage but when he was sent to Canada his father was dead.
His mother Elizabeth married ?Dugmore and later married William Lowes. I
would be so thrilled to find a CALLAGHAN relative. Thank you for starting
this list. Good luck everyone. Fran
