Hi christanel
Just wondered about the fireman, would it be connected with the ironworks, not like a fireman as we know of the occupation to-day?

Excuse my ignorance what is the GRO index?

[christanel]

Hiu
This is the GRO index https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ where you can search for births and get the mother's maiden name. You can also search for deaths but not marriages. For those you have to use FreeBMD
https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

You can search for Irish records on this site but researching in Ireland is difficult as so many records are missing.

Hi Alma
I can't find any of the birth registrations for Timothy and Bridget's children either.

I found Eliza registered in 1856 under DWIRE, mother 's maiden name Collins.
There are other Dwire children registered but different maiden names, perhaps cousins?
