Thank you for that can’t find much info on her parents now either, John parents is still a struggle

Irish records are notoriously patchy.

I can't find anything else on Ancestry, FamilySearch, or irishgenealogy.ie

yes definatly are agree with u there thaank you for what u have found so far

think john lilly possibly birth date could be earlier 1797 maybe

1797 is what the 1851 census says - but not necessarily correct.

Still no records.

Wendy had a thread on the Lilly family on the zfind living relatives board. She has marked it as answered.

This is worth reading, Wendy

thankyou

I see you've put those death records on your Ancestry tree.

Please note that we can't say for sure that those people are Bridget's parents - though Maria's death seems like a good possibility, as it's actually in Elphin.

They are common names in the area, and also Irish records are patchy, especially so far back, so these may be completely different people.

Looking at the image of Bridget's baptism record, it gives the family address as Lisgariffe.
That's possibly Lisgarve, approx 4 miles from Elphin.

Boyle is about 9 miles from Lisgarve, and about 10 from Elphin.

I can't make out the address on the burial record for the Maria who died in 1823. It's something like Lisardane (transcribed as L Sardane, as it's so hard to decipher) - but I don't see any place name anything like that anywhere near Elphin.

hi i have on ancestry not on my tree on here yes definalty patchy was trying to see if could get anywhere with it on ancestry but got nowhwere lol thankyou for ll info
