Just for our reference:

Elizabeth's marriage less than a month after Catherine's birth:

SR District/Reg Area - Waterford
Marriage of WILLIAM RYAN and ELIZABETH LONG
on 13 October 1914
Party 1 Name WILLIAM RYAN
Party 2 Name ELIZABETH LONG
Date of Event 13 October 1914
Group Registration ID 1750232
SR District/Reg Area Waterford

Elizabeth's address: Stephen Street.
Father: Thomas Long, labourer.

thank you for all the above replies - we do have all the information given already but can't find any mention of relatives since she, Catherine Long, was born. She had no contact at all with any member of her own family and we can only guess that she was brought up outside of her family. we have found her mother Elizabeth and her father William Ryan, and Elizabeth's 9 siblings along with some of their spouses and children but nothing after 1940

what we are hoping for is that someone from her family may know something about the circumstances of her early life and possibly help us to trace living family members.

Name Thomas Long
Sex Male
Age 24
Birth Year (Estimated) 1845
Father's Name William Long
Spouse's Name Mary Brien
Spouse's Sex Female
Spouse's Age 18
Spouse's Birth Year (Estimated) 1851
Spouse's Father's Name John Brien
Marriage Date 8 Oct 1869
Marriage Place Cork, County Cork, Ireland
Marriage Place (Original) Cork, Cork
Thomas Long's Parents and Siblings
William Long
Father
M

So Elizabeth could have been the mother,?as per 1901 Irish census.


Maybe Catherine wasnt brought up within the Long family.?

I think this may be the birth posted by Kay????

The 1911 Irish census has NO Thomas Long with wife Mary in Waterford

Have you looked at the Irish 1901 and 1911 censuses? They are free to all

Who/when/where did she marry?

What leads you to believe that Kathleen Bartlett is the same person as Catherine Long?

As you have chosen this board for your post, what are you hoping for?

Name Catherine Long
Birth Date Oct - Dec 1914
Birthplace Waterford, Ireland
Registration Quarter and Year Oct - Dec 1914
Registration District Waterford
Volume Number 4.

her birth registration.?

Edit----Did Thomas and Mary have a daughter old enough to be Catherines un-married mother?

looking for any info on relatives of Thomas and Mary Long (nee O Brien/Ryan) form Waterford in Ireland
they had at least 10 children we have details of and one of these is our maternal grandmother Catherine Long, born in 1914
she had no contact with her family as an adult and was known to her family as Kathleen Bartlett - her marriage certificate notes John Bartlett, a Stevedore as her father,
after her death we found her birth certificate naming her as Catherine Long, mother Eliza Long born in Waterford Ireland. still the same date of birth.

we would like to find out about her real family or even the Bartletts who brought her up


any help gratefully received as this has been a puzzle for years
