Welcome to RootsChat.
You need to give some dates and any more information you have.
For example, when, even approximately, would Michael have been born?
Do you know the other son’s name?

Richard Norris was born in Ireland. He had at least 2 sons with **Mary Quinn**. Children: Nicholas 1847-1915, Michael Patrick Norris 1866-1949 (maybe birth 1863 or 1864) Michael married age 24. Nicholas died 1915 New York.
Thank you Barbara

Unsure if this is the same family, but
There is a Richard Norris and Mary Quin with the following sons born Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary –
•   Edward 1858
•   Michael 1860
•   James 1866

At the birth registration for James 16 May 1866, the father Richard Norris (clerk) is described as deceased
