My Luck and Shane, Thank you so much for all your trouble.  That is them in the censuses - I know the names of the other children, apart from James Edward.  I have never heard of him.  I kept on looking and looking and couldn't find them.  I must be stupid.
  Now I have the mother's name and years of birth.  This is so exciting.

I have also heard that William Joseph later became an aide to Tim Healy, but this may be just a story.

In the censuses, the O'Mahonys lived at Thomas Mckenzie & Sons, 212 Gt. Brunswick St.

Marriage in January 1918 between William Joseph O'Reilly, aged 20, an engineer
address Grosvenor Gardens, Harolds Cross, father Michael O'Reilly, a gardener
 and
Eveleen O'Mahony, aged 19, address 132 Harolds Cross, father Daniel O'Mahony an agricultural expert.

I can find the O'Mahonys in the censuses and on irish genealogy but I can't get any further back with the O'Reillys.

There is also a birth certificate in 1918 and a marriage certificate in 1934 giving Grosvenor Gardens as the address.

The family giving Grosvenor Gardens as their address was O'Reilly.  There are no mothers' names on the marriage certificate.

Is it likely that they wouldn't have completed the census forms?

My ancestors have put their address, on several birth and marriage certificates, in the early 20th century, as Grosvenor Gardens, Harolds Cross.   I can't find this anywhere.  I can't see the family in either of the censuses either.

I would be grateful for any ideas.
