Person in this family

Brigid (Breda) Fitzgerald

Dates not recorded

Brigid Fitzgerald — Breda in the family — was a daughter of John Fitzgerald and Mary O'Shea of Fahan, Ventry. She married John White and three children are recorded. Their birth cannot be looked up. Irish civil birth records are published only to 1926 under the hundred-year rule, and every one of this couple's ten children was born after their 1932 marriage — so none of them can be checked online at all. The Ventry Catholic parish baptismal register, which the rule does not bind, is the only route.

What we still don't know

  • [PRIVACY FLAG CORRECTED] This person was marked as possibly living, which suppressed everything about them. Nothing in their record refers to any year after 1905, so they cannot be alive: even somebody born in that year would be over a hundred and ten now. The flag was a default that had never been revisited, and it was hiding a nineteenth-century person as though they were a contemporary.
