Hi Redhen  :) Hi Bob  :)

How accurate is the 1851?  Do you have him on 1851 or 1861 census?

I wonder if they were Irish with a name like that?  They might have taken him back to Ireland to baptise him.

Quite a few of my own Irish in Salford / Manchester / Heywood Lancs did that, even when thery'd had a child over here, or got married or had a child baptised over here.

I'll see what I can see!

best wishes

PS I found the entries on familysearch and / or Irishgenealogy both free online but not complete!  Fortunately mine were in Dublin - loads of entries!

Hi

Looks as if it's worth a look in the area anyway, and at Crosscannonby and nearby.

Thanks for explaining.

Best wishes
