My name is Thomas Kehoe and I was born in Enniscorthy in 1943. due to being put in Irish industrial school I have very little information on my maternal grandmother. I her family name was Dunbar and we found only one record of a Dunbar family in Templescoby enniscorthy. If anybody has any information on this family I would appreciate contact. My grandmothers name was Mary Dunbar and I know she Married a tom Doyle. I know her age on her marriage certificate was wrong. and I am looking for closure as I am ill and need to find any living family if they would be interested. my mothers Name was margaret doyle born 1st april 1924.  please can anybody help?

     In case no family members respond to your message, there are 90 Doyles in Wexford in the Irish phone book including 1 in Enniscorthy. We are not permitted to send the details on the site but the Irish phone book is http://www.118.ie/. Perhaps if you write to the Enniscorthy one they might know something.

    If you can't find it send me another email address and I'll send it there.
