Hi
Flick Patrick and James were born in Ireland about 1828 and 1838 respectively
brummiejan, I know her husband is Nathaniel as in a previous search on her for a James Reardon marrying a Bridget Reardon (daughter to the above Mary Campbell) an incredibly helpful person found a record of the marriage and it listed both James Reardon's father and Bridget Campbell's father. See a past post about Reardon for more info on ths.

A written (but inaccuarte) family history has said Mary Campbel left Dundalk during the famine in 1848 as a widow, which is why I think he was dead before 1848, however, I find no trace of the Campbell's on the 1851 census.

Hope this helps

HI
Firstly I would like to say the message you get explaining how to use the boards when you first click on new topic is really helpful.

I have hit a brick wall with the Campbell's in my family.

I have a Mary Campbell born 1801 Ireland, in Dundlak I think.

Campbell is her married name. I know she was married to Nathaniel Campbell who had died by 1848. As a widower she left Ireland due to the famine and moved her family to Liverpool/. I am not sure when. I assume after 1851 as I can't find them on the 1851 census.

Family history has her down as having 4 daughters (Lucy, Bridget, Catherine and Mary), and 1 son - Nicholas. This is not correct as the 1861 census shows a son called Patrick and a son called James.

Can anyone help me trace the marriage of Mary ? to Nathaniel Campbell in Ireland please, and then the children they had please.

Many thanks in advance

Vicki
