Hi, I am hoping you can help me with my search. I am writing from Canada. I am trying to locate the birth record of my grandfather without success. I have done searches through the National Registrar office, the Library in Dublin and many of the parish churches and after spending a lot of money (hundreds of dollars) have come up with nothing. My grandfather was apparently born in Drumcondra, Co. Dublin in May 1887. His name was Victor George Cairns His father's name was John and his mother was Kathleen. Kathleen was born in 1858. I do not know John's birth date. Victor had an older brother, Harry Thomas Cairns, born around 1876. They could not find any record of Victor's birth in the National Registrar's office so it may have either not been a registered birth or it may have been destroyed in the fire. There will hopefully be a baptism record somewhere, but I have not had any luck in finding that either. I believe he was with the Church of Ireland. There is apparently a John Cairns listed in Thom's Directory as a ratepayer in 12 Windsor Avenue, Clontarf from 1888. I cannot seem to find access to the Thom's Directory from here. I do not know for sure if it is the same family, but it could quite likely be. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Cindy Ford | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
