hi Sylvia from what the registration office in Waterford told me there must have been a mix up when my Mary Hendrick got married they had to get a birth and Baptism certificate and it was a copy and it looks as if my Mary was not born 25 august 1929 but instead may be to a Margaret Hendrick in may 1929 Margaret registered no father for Mary Margaret Hendrick, Margaret was a single domestic from Glenmore Kilkenny. Thats all i have ,all my mary said she was living at woodbrook kilmoganny kilkenny with jack walsh and katie (kate) walsh and may be someone called buby. there was meant to be a little girl called brennan dont know surname.

Child and Family Agency seems to be the gateway to those seeking information regarding Social Services and past adoptions. Although not relevant in this case, it might be a good place to start.

http://www.tusla.ie/get-in-touch gives contact details. You may find that after the initial advise, information (if available) will only be given to your mother-in-law
