hello rachel,
sometimes clues are there and i think this may be the case here.
u have ur nan's birth year, if u have the full dob or the birth cert ur up and running.
ur father's birth cert or dob is the next important step.
as u have the maiden name of ur g/grandmother it ought to be reasonably straightforward to check the records in dublin.
assume that maurice & mary married lets say between 1918 and 1921 and u will have less of a task searching.
get as much info as possible from older living relatives.
if u can't get to dublin let me know, i can look up irish bmd records here in london but i will need as much info as u can provide. tony
