Irishgenealogy.ie cut off dates

I committed a mortal sin and didn't record the source of a birth record :mad:
So annoyed with myself.
The birth was in 1917 in Tralee and I have an exact date along with the births of her siblings. I cannot find these on irishgenealogy.ie now and I thought that was where I had found them. It's a branch of my family that wasn't high on the research list so I wasn't as careful as normal.
I've a vague memory of going a bit mad gathering records a few years back when they accidentally put recent records up for a couple of days. Perhaps that's when I took down the details.
I know the site says births to 1918 are online but could they be incomplete ?

Births registered in 1918 should all be there, a 1917 birth would have to be insanely late to miss that.

If you'd like to post the details maybe one of us can throw another pair of eyes at it.

jos28 · 30-12-2019 10:38pm

Thanks Hermy, you'll probably find it straight away.
She is Johanna Rawley , DOB 24 May 1917, parents Patrick Rawley and Julia Glover. I have Julia's details and their marriage cert but can't see their children. Maybe I need to move away from the Christmas drinks press

Hmm.
She doesn't come up under Rawley/Rowley.
I tried just Johanna in 1917 and searched the results for Glover - nothing.

She's also not in the other index (I tried FMP).

Where in Ireland was she born?

Some Johanna Raleighs but not the right dates.

Cheers Pinky, at least I'm not going mad. It's strange that none of the children appear. I have 7 children born between 1916 and 1929. I know the later ones won't be there but I thought Johanna and her sister Mary b1916 would be. I'm so annoyed I didn't record the source. I really think that I got them during that brief window.

99% sure it was Tralee, her parents never moved. Married in Tralee and stayed there until they died. It's a strange one

pinkypinky · 30-12-2019 11:08pm

And when did the parents marry?

jos28 · 30-12-2019 11:12pm

5 August 1913

pinkypinky · 30-12-2019 11:17pm

That father is called James...

jos28 · 30-12-2019 11:20pm

Ooops, sorry - typo, my fault

pinkypinky · 30-12-2019 11:21pm

Here's a John born to James and Julia in 1914.

https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1914/01399/1575582.pdf

He's the only child with those 2 surnames matching in the 1913-1918 period.

Many thanks Pinky, now where are they hiding his siblings

pinkypinky · 30-12-2019 11:34pm

We're probably looking at a weird spelling of Rawley here - I found that one looking under Raleigh. Try all the variants on John Grenham's site, if you haven't already.

Also try crossreferencing from familysearch/FMP/Ancestry version of the index.

Not this time, I'm afraid!:o

Mary Rawley 1916

Mother's surname is transcribed as "Gloves"

pinkypinky · 01-01-2020 11:26pm

Great spot.
