can anyone please fill in the blanks? in 1911 George's wife Annie (Ms Morgan) and children Mary Jane Gibbs aged 7years and George Joseph Gibbs aged 5years were visitors in her brother Arthur Morgans house, Bonecastle, Holllymount, Down. George Gibbs was we think working in Dublin (Brushmaker). I cannot find any other records of the families whereabouts until in 1921 when they were living in Princess Street, Bolton, Lancashire. a gap of some 10years, PS they were married at St, Mirens RC church in Paisley, Scotland in 1902.
