comments: hello my name is Cody Courtenay I am the grand son of Edward James Courtenay who was born in Bushmills Northern Ireland.

His birth date is March 16th, 1891

His parents are James and Katherine Courtenay and Katherine's maiden name is Getti.

I never had the chance to meet him as he died when my dad (Lionel Courtenay) was only about ten. I have his marriage certificate to my grandmother here in Canada and his death certificate, However i am looking at helping my family regain our roots and look at our citizenship.

For me to get my citizenship or for my father to get his we need a copy of the long birth certificate.
do you know who i can talk to or who can help me, if you know of anybody can you forward this information to them and get them to contact me.

I have been back to Northern Ireland and loved it met some 3nd cousins and think one day i might find myself moving back.

this website link is the best match of my grandfathers siblings and parents
