O'BRIEN Surname in Roscommon

Post by Michael Fryer »

My Great Grandmother was Bridget O'Brien b.1860. Bridget married John Fryer and had thier first child Patrick Fryer b.1879, in Roscommon.<br>On a birth record for her last child Anne b.1891, it says, present at the birth, Michael O'Brien, Uncle. If anyone has a lead for me about Bridget O'Brien, please comtact me. I believe her fathers name was James O'Brien.<br>I have not beed able to locvate thier marriage information, I have looked for years, no records at the GRO or Churches I have contacted.<p>Thank you,<br>Michael Fryer

There are just a few others of that spelling in the book. The O Briens that you seek ought not to be too far removed from the Fryer place of abode. <p>On the name Fryer, you may be aware that it is one of the semi-anglicised forms of 'Mac an Phríora'. It is mostly found nowadays in the form 'Prior'. <p>Good luck with the search - Go n-éirí sé leat. <p><br>

Thank you MIchael, I did not know the information you shared with me about my surname. I have searched for four years for the O;Brien, no luck. I am aware of the Fryer's presently liviing on Roscommon, in fact I write to them often. They are not familiar with the O'Brien's.<p>Thank You.<p>Michael Fryer<br>
