.McEntyre. ..... Laoy , Cavan
Hi - I am from Christchurch, New Zealand and am researching my great grandfather's birth place. He is Thomas John McEntyre and his marriage/ death certificates says his birth place was Laoy, Cavan, Ireland. He was born approx 1832 and left Ireland in the mid 1800s . We cannot locate Laoy. While we have a large family tree for Thomas ' s off spring in NZ, we come to a dead end with the Cavan connection. We think he had brothers come over with. Him but cn ind no trace of them. Can anyone help?…See More

- I got started researching my family history ......
- Got started in 1988 and have been doing it on and off since then. I was raised with many family stories etc. Recently since the earthquakes in Christchurch, NZ, I have returned to the research and involved my parents -the quakes made me value this history - so easy to lose it all in one big disaster
- I have been doing genealogy since ....
- about 24 years
- We all have them - my biggest brick wall is .......
- Finding the place that one of my great grandfather lists in marriage and deaths records as his birtplace - Laoy, Cavan.
Other than that, I want to be able to locate the birth or baptism records for each of my great grandparents.
