Hi,

Do you have a copy of his birth cert? You can get it through

www.groireland.ie

Copies of the registrations can provide valuable info.

Good hunting.

Hi, I've just sent for his birth certificate, but not sure of his mothers name, I have her as Jane Taylor, but really not sure about that. His father is listed as Francis Taylor on Williams marriage certificate, and also on his brother Francis' marriage certificate. Anyway, I found a Jane Taylor as a widow, with a James & William Taylor on 1901 census, in Belfast. And since he had a brother James it seems as though Jane is his mother?? I can but try!!
