Kiltaglassan and aghadowey, 

Thank you both for replies.
  First where I found this printed as set out above  minus the "////"  .....  it was through MyHeritage and a tree that is belonging to a relative of Thomas. Initially I was able to access the Family Search data Base that allows one to see their records for the chosen person.  It also allows one to add information or suggest alternative information with supporting source information.  So what I posted is what was on there. not MyHeritage

I  have not got back to that point since, but the information was added by someone with an account on there.  It's free. There is no way that the dates can be verified , unless you do bit of date matching, know Thomas's age at those dates etc.

For me they do relate but why were they posted as Census and not Residence.   I know that putting that up under Census is  silly to say the least.

The reason why they relate is because of a private family story which at this point in time is still a family hand-me-down story un-validated. 
Unfortunately those vanished Census Records would have helped  with that if they showed where Thomas was at a particular time and with whom.     
Eventually Thomas moved to England and joined the Inland Revenue and worked with them all his life.

I have not tried to contact the person as there is so little information on there other than this list of dates and places he was. Not even his death information. 

Yes this is now touching on living people because it's their past.
 aghadowey. thanks for the pm offer.. will do .

Okay,  No I hadn't . I had to go out for a few hours and forgot to when I got back...   my apologies.   


However that still does not explain what those odd dates represent.  Any ideas anyone??

Thank you Essnell

Hi Kiltaglassan
Thank you for the map image.  Map Genie is very clever. 

I have another simple question...... was a Census taken in Ireland in 1881. I know there was such in England. 

Reason I am asking is because I have another Gilbert Person who left Ireland to go to England about 1880.  I cannot find him on the English Census for 1881. I am trying to pinpoint when he left Ireland.  After that I have his marriage in England and his children etc. 

Maybe the Irish Census was taken in a different year. 

  Thanks for any information.

Addit  Just found two news paper mentions of this chap one 1892 and then 1894.   but that's 10yrs down the the track for him but it gives me an idea of where he was living at that time.  Still nothing in 1881.

Hi Kiltaglassan,   I  must have bad eyesight , to have not seen that.  Probably too intent on Sophie. etc.  but I have been pushed to re-look as I have a DNA match that says she married John Harris .  now that all upended things a bit because  Charles George Gilbert came up in searches so  ....  yes the father was Charles Gilbert---Mark and Harriet's last child so --- that makes Florence, Emily's cousin........ in digging through that I discovered her siblings.: 

Lucy 1905: Charles 1908; Florence 1912; Margaret 1914.     
Do not think there were any others. 
I have no idea why he used George at times as his name or part of it.

Now that map:  That image is the one I was asking about.  What era would that be from?  It's obviously well before the Google ones that are on here .   My estimate is early 1850's.at least.

Thanks for helping yet again.
