: I am stuck!!!! Looking for more details on my GGgrandfather and GGgrandmother Dominic McDonald (maybe McDonnel)and Bridget Belinda Hoban... This is what I have Dominic born 11 sep 1838 in Roscommon Bridget Born 6 jan 1842 Shannon, Roscommon...they were married 4 feb 1858 in Ballentubber...Dominic's father may be James McDonnel and his mothers first name was Sarah...Bridget's fathers name was Patrick Hoban...Children were John,Sarah, Agnes, Mary, and Anna.....I got all of this from direct family history and have not been able to find any documentation...Any help would be great!!! : Paul McDonald Paul, Bridget Hoban was most likely a member of the Hobans of Timanagh Townland, which is located about 200 yards down the hill from the site of the old Ballintober Chapel where she was married. That chapel was replaced in 1900.
On my next visit to my LDS library I will have a look for documentation of some of those births you mention. The ones which occurred 1858-1864 were recorded only in the parish register which LDS does not have on microfilm, however the later ones may be in government records. Tom Voyles
