X Iain this is a copy of the information I sent toGraham DooleyI am sending this first because this JeremiahDooley initially served with the Royal IrishConstabulary enlisting in 1866, aged 21 years,Born Kilkenney, Ireland, a comment next to theentry on Ancestry UK says that he 'Emigrated'. Solooking at it, it is possible that he was borncirca 1845 and then arrives in Liverpool and joinsthe Liverpool Borough Police where he stays 4months he then joins Cheshire, after several yearsjoins Warrington Borough and then dies in service.Certainly the time line fits so wondering if infact this is where the Dooley line starts inEngland Cheshire/Warrington and after his deaththe sort of family tradition carries on withjoining the Police Force, worth considering. Ofcourse the only way to confirm all this is to buyThomas Dooley birth certificate (01/05/1901Appleton, Cheshire) and this of course would showhis parents, who would possibly appear on the 1901Census. Then of course carry on with the purchaseof certificates eventually it may all link intoJeremiah, it's all just a thought.CHESHIRE SERVICE INFORMATION FOR JEREMIAH DOOLEYCollar Number/Rank.

Sale.** note here that this information is for when heactually joins the force and that he is a widowerwith one son. We have a volume that contains allmarriages for Cheshire Constabulary Policeofficers from about 1840 to 1967. So it tends tosuggest that he was married in either Ireland orafter his arrival in Liverpool but in any eventnot whilst in Cheshire as it was an offence tofail to seek permission to marry and this seemsto have be strictly enforced. Having said this youwill note that in August 1873 he resigned andreturned after two weeks. This appears to havebeen a common ploy when officers did not wish toask permission to marry, i.e. resign, marry, andreapply.**Promotion/Misconduct.
