Yes Shane I think thats them. I'm descended from John Lynch but he was married at the time of the 1901 census and living at North Dock Street. Thanks for all your help.

one detail that I'm wondering about - Margaret is listed as being born in 'Dublin'... 

Did your John marry a Maria/Mary Pentland ?

I'll look for Michael & Margaret in 1911...

Yes Shane, Mary Pentland was my Grandmother but that's even a bigger mystery. Seemingly her Mother left her in Dublin with some relation and went off to America never to be heard of again. I did notice that Margaret stated Dublin as her place of birth but put if down as an error, also her age of 40 in 1901 is a bit dubious.

....

On most of the census details 'North Dock' refers to the electoral district, rather than a street. On the transcriptions the street or townland is the first part, and the Electoral District is in brackets.

This looks like it might be your John in 1901 - Lynch household, Dock Street

Even though Mary neé Pentland lists her place of birth as Dublin, the parish marriage record for her lists her parents address as Athboy.

I think this is John and Mary on the 1911 return. See what you meant earlier - this time the street is listed as 'North Dock Street North':

  Lynch household 1911

Yes Shane, I did hear Athboy mentioned in the past but I think her parents married in Dublin. Don't have any info on them except that she went to America and as for him, well nothing for him at all. Pentland is a Scottish name so I thought he was probably a soldier and that the marriage ended when his Regiment got posted elsewhere.

There's a parish record of the marriage on the IrishGenealogy website :

   Marriage of Joannes Lynch and Maria Pentland - 24 Sept 1899
   St. Mary's RC, Haddington Road, Dublin
