William Hayden, Tramore, Waterford Master Mariner born 1874 father James Hayden william became a Master Mariner in 1881 and married Elzabeth Adams in Nova Scotia the family returned to Tramore. wife and three daughters show up on both the 1901 and 1911 but he doesn't. Could have been at sea.
Any information on William welcomed also any information on how to trace Irish Mariners and their boats would also be welcome.
Also looking for info on James Barry from Tramore and Waterford born 1803 he was a harbour Pilot in Waterford and died in 1904.

For reference here is Elizabeth and family in 1911- Elizabeth's listed as a widow which is why you can't find her husband in 1911-

Thanks, good stuff on James Barry and family. I should have seen that on William Hayden not as smart as I think I am................ lol.
-
Well, at least it does seem to narrow down when William might have died.
Is that the correct James Barry? age quite a bit out from your original post.
-
Yes, all good, thanks lived over 100 years
-
If James Barry died in 1904 then it doesn't look like he was over 100 years old when he died- see here (https://www.familysearch.org/search/record/results#count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3Ajames%7E%20%2Bsurname%3Abarry%7E%20%2Bdeath_year%3A1904-1904%7E&collection_id=1408347&birth_year0=1800&death_place0=8)

Sorry I messed up on the dates he was born in 1811 in Passage, East Waterford and died in Henry Street
Waterford in 1916 aged 104.
Sorry and thanks again.
-
There's a 1915 death which could be him but based on the 2 census records I'd be careful about believing his age.

Yes that's him thank's born in Passage East, Waterford. Died in Henry Street Waterford.
I would love to find out if he has a work record at Waterford Harbour.
Thanks again for your help.

Have you asked Waterford Archives at High Street , Waterford City? they may be able to help you.

William Hayden born 29th Sept 1854, Tramore. Details of his Master and Mate certificates and of the ships he served on are available on Ancestry. (fee). If he died at sea it might be worth searching familyrelatives.com - marine deaths. These registers are free to view though you will have to search each quarter seperately.
As his wife was a maternity nurse, Waterford Archives in High St also hold various records from the maternity hospital in Parliament St. - www.waterfordcity.ie/departments/archives/pages/maternity.htm
Harveys Directory lists a James Barry, Pilot living at 16 Henry St. in 1877. - http://waterfordhistory2.tripod.com/1877_directory_h_l.htm
