        Hi, I'm also researching in Offaly, I have found UK GDL useful, just select Offaly (Kings) where it says 'select a county' then click on the county button underneath, there is a whole list of assorted links to some quite obscure directories. Might be lucky ?

            Here's the link to the UK GDL - http://www.ukgdl.org.uk/

            I think your thread is more suitable for the Research Qs & As forum as the Research Request forum is used for specific lookups at Records Offices.
            You may well find on the Research forum that members will have some more general ideas.

              but as it doesn't show families it may not be much help without a more specific birthplace.
