EAGAN/EGAN AND BRADY - Ballymanus/Derrybrock Co Laois

[shanew147]

two possible matches for Michael jnr's birth around the right time on the BMD index - both as Eagan.

see :  Michael Eagan births, 1874-1878
(skip past the Kilrush entries ...)

I'm not seeing anything likely for Maria in Athy district, but maybe she originated in a neighbouring area. Several of the listings are for Naas district which is the district immediately north of Athy

see : Maria Brady births, 1873-1879

Two possible matches as Anne in Athy district - one in 1874, the other with the surname recorded as Bready in 1879.

If you wish to check further details on these you can order research certs from the GRO by post. See :

Based on father's name from the census, there's a possible match on the extracted births for on of those index records I mentioned :

The BMD Index reads :

  Name: Michael Eagan
  Registration district: Athy
  Event type: Birth
  Year: 1877
  Volume: 3 / Page: 443
  see : https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FBS1-BZP

and the extracted record :
   
  Name: Michael Eagan
  Birth date: 03 Feb 1877
  birthplace : Athy, Queens Co.  (district)
  Parents: Michael Eagan & Julia Stapleton
  Ref.: v 3-2 p 443
  see : https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FG6K-TBP

(area/district and page number correspond with the index , so a match)

The extracted record mentions a 'Father's Birthplace' as Inch - this is incorrect, as this detail is not included in birth registers or certs, but may relate to place of birth, or father's residence.

A birth cert would narrow down the place of birth - likely the name of the townland.
