Her father was a carpenter with the Burtonport railroad.

Here's the route of the Lough Swilly Railway from Letterkenny to Burtonport attached.

Hello,

I am searching for the baptism record for my grandmother Nora Walsh. She was born 2 Aug 1902, Shamrock Cottages, Dublin. Father: John Walsh. Mother: Mary Lardner. By 1904, the family was living in Belfast. I have her birth certificate but need help to find a baptism record.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kathleen

It would seem that the family was involved in the shipbuilding industry.

Information I have from Glasnevin is:

1852 – sister Margaret Scallan
      address at time of death: Sir John Quay

1860 – father George Walsh
      occupation: Pilot
      1842 (death of wife Elizabeth): Sir Johns Quay
     1860 - address at time of death: 2 Hanover Quay

1875 – brother Stephen Walsh
      occupation: shipbuilder
      address at time of death: 123 Sir Johns Rogersons Quay
      Informant: Michael who lived at the Quay

1877 – sister Ellen Richardson
   address at time of death: 50 South King Street

Thank you again.

Michael is son of George Walsh 1798-1860 and Elizabeth McCabe 1798-1842. I found baptism at St. Andrews, 27 Oct 1833 but not finding much else.

The siblings I have found are 
Stephen Walsh (Mary Anne Murphy) 1819–1875; 
Margaret Mary Walsh (Michael Scallan) 1825–1852; 
Elizabeth Walsh (Stephen Bond) 1830–1884; 
Ellen Walsh (Thomas Richardson) 1836–1877.


He appears to be the person making burial arrangements for his family at Glasnevin Cemetery.

Any help greatly appreciated.
