My 3 x g grandfather appears in the 1901 Census at the age of 77, living in Ballynakilly Upper, Glanbehy, Kerry with his wife, Ellen, aged 67 and son, Maurice, 29. By 1911, Ellen and her son, Maurice are living at the same address (different spelling - Ballynakelly) and Ellen is a widow.
Maurice's year of birth, 1826, is derived from the 1901 census, so may be out.
Despite many searches and name spellings, I can't find a likely candidate for Maurice's death. I would be appreciative if someone can do a quick search to confirm he is not there and I will just have to consider his death unregistered.
Thanks.

A possibility in 1911 (Seems unlikely)

Hi Neale,
I had looked at that one and discounted it due to that Maurice being a widower, which mine wasn't, the location, and it was post 1911 census. It was worth a look though - thanks for your time.

The civil parish of Kinard is a long way away on the next peninsula near Dingle.

Her son Denis was the informant.
This might be Denis and family in 1911 census.

Thanks, KG, I did have them. I am getting tripped up between Ballynakilla and Ballynakilly with this family. The place names seem to be interchangeable.
