Fellow Rootschatters,
I'm in need of some assistance, if possible, to confirm Terence Hanbury Jr was born in the Pembroke Docks area between 1873-1875 but I've failed miserably. There just does not seem to be a record of a birth in this name anywhere in Wales as far as I can tell. I have an inkling that perhaps his birth may not have been registered but would have thought that a baptism would have taken place soon after his birth as the parents were both of the RC faith.
Info I already have
His father Terence Hanbury Snr was discharged from the army at Pembroke Docks in 1873, on his discharge document he states that he intends to stay in the area. TH senior was married in Dublin in 1871 to Mary Toole and they had a daughter Annie before marriage.
By 1875 the couple are back in Dublin where they have a second daughter, Catherine born that year.
My first confirmed sighting of TH Jr is on the Irish 1901 census where he states that he was born in Wales, lodging with the Duignam family and he married their daughter Mary later on in 1901 and died in 1909.
Any help, thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.
Regards
Scatty

Were the births for Annie and Catherine registered?

was discharged from the army at Pembroke Docks in 1873,
Is it possible he was born abroad - he may have thought Wales was his birth place in error :-\
Where are the rest of the family in 1881/1891?

What date was Catherine born do you know?
Only there is a Dublin baptism for a Michael Peter Hanbury 1 Jul 1875 (transcription only) with parents Terence Hanbury & Mary Toole.
