Michael is son of George Walsh 1798-1860 and Elizabeth McCabe 1798-1842. I found baptism at St. Andrews, 27 Oct 1833 but not finding much else.
The siblings I have found are
Stephen Walsh (Mary Anne Murphy) 1819–1875;
Margaret Mary Walsh (Michael Scallan) 1825–1852;
Elizabeth Walsh (Stephen Bond) 1830–1884;
Ellen Walsh (Thomas Richardson) 1836–1877.
He appears to be the person making burial arrangements for his family at Glasnevin Cemetery.
Any help greatly appreciated.

From your other thread, I take it that Michael is a brother of your direct ancestor so you are trying to go forward with him.

We are so used to people trying to go back I was a bit confused by your post at first.

Yes, I am trying to go forward - don't really think I can go backwards from his father George.
Sorry to be confusing.

Difficult to go forward, if he did marry it would be most likely in his bride's parish, which might not even be in Dublin. If he didn't then there won't be anything to find except his death and than only if you can find the right one and if a family member was the informant, or his name in the Will Calenders.
Does the information from Glasnevin give any idea of an address for him?
-
It would seem that the family was involved in the shipbuilding industry.
Information I have from Glasnevin is:
1852 – sister Margaret Scallan
address at time of death: Sir John Quay
1860 – father George Walsh
occupation: Pilot
1842 (death of wife Elizabeth): Sir Johns Quay
1860 - address at time of death: 2 Hanover Quay
1875 – brother Stephen Walsh
occupation: shipbuilder
address at time of death: 123 Sir Johns Rogersons Quay
Informant: Michael who lived at the Quay
1877 – sister Ellen Richardson
address at time of death: 50 South King Street
Thank you again.

Thanks - I am not sure, don't have any information other than what has been gathered through my GGF Stephen, brother to Michael. The family used the traditional naming patterns and did re-use names if a child died. The Christina Walsh seems like a match given the address and baptism at St. Andrews, Westland Row - that being the church for the marriages and baptisms for the family.
I appreciate your efforts.
