Welcome to Rootschat.

1/ Any information on his parents. Francis and Mary's marriage certificate should list his (and her) father's name and occupation. It will also give residence of bride and groom at the time of the marriage.

2/ When did he die. According to 1901 census Mary was a widow by 1901.

3/ Any information on his first child,Francis see reply #2
Son Francis and wife Annie living Bow Street in 1911- transcribed as Suffington:
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Antrim/Smithfield/Bow_Street/185336

4/ Place of birth. According to the 1901 census (reply #1) Francis was born in County Antrim.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
