I am looking for a Sarah Lyle that was born approximately 1895 in Belfast, Ireland. Her parents were John Lyle and Sarah Lyle neƩ Greer. I cannot find the birth on the general register index of Ireland or Northern Ireland,. However, she shows on the 1901 and 1911 Irish Census.

Kathleen's birth is there and even Mary's although the mother was listed as widowed in 1901. On Mary's the address of the father John is recorded as Unknown.


EDIT

John appears to have died in 1906, so perhaps they had separated and Sarah's birth registered in a different surname.
