F(ather) Owen - M(other) Cathn

B(rothers) Jas, John, Peter

S(ister) Mary  NP (Native Place)

It probably means that they were all living at his native place, but could also just refer to sister Mary.

thank you. never thought that, that it would mention his parents/siblings.
I've looked at this before but never too closely.
Gives me something to work through for his parents (though considering he used numerous alias - might still be a bit tricky to find).
