I made a breakthough in April finally getting a County of birth in Ireland for my GGfather William Carroll b1857 in Waterford. I have taken time out since then and now ready to try and dig deeper.
Waterford records are not on line. I have contacted Waterford Heritage Centre who reply as follows....
We could do a research project in the Co Waterford area for the family of William Carroll.
We conduct commissioned research on the Civil & Church records pre -1911. If an initial search is successful the Report would include the date of birth or baptism of the person sought, the parents names and their date of marriage together with the dates of birth of siblings. It would also include a determination of the place of origin of the person involved.
Our fee for this research is ¤100 (Euro) or other currency equivalent.
All I know is that William Carroll was born in 1857. His father was a 'deceased labourer' (also William) when he married in 1879 in Liverpool. I have not traced any siblings. A fair chance Williams mother was called Bridget.
Anyone else tried this? Any alternative methods I should consider? Is it worth a shot? Any advice would be welcome
