As per Aghadowey's 1911 census return for Michael Brophy   marriage in Harrington st 8 Sep 1907
Michael Brophy 51 Bishop st son of William Brophy and Bridget Fenlon of 23 Winetavern st to
Rose McCall 30 Lr Clanbrassil st dtr of John McCall and Anne Murphy 6 upr Mercer st
witness Hubert Kennedy 31 Kingsland Parade and Agnes McCann 35 Synge st.
checking the 1901/1911 census for Winetavern st there dosent seem to be a number 23 as it starts at 27.

baptism ST Michan 1876
Michael Henry Brophy
born the
7 Jan 1876 8 Linehall st mothers name
Margaret Fenlon but other child born same address of Bridget Fenlon.

on the 1911 census there is a Cissy Brophy age 16 servant girl no notable match for her on 1901 census.

Roseanna McCall born 19 Oct 1876.

at the marriage of William Wynne and Anne Murphy in Harrington st Church 1902 she's a witness and gives her address as 19 Gordons Place.

1901 census of 19 Gordons Place shows
Anne McCall age 51 a widow
Christopher son 19

aghadowey

I cant find a record of death on Familysearch.org

Findmypast has an Annie b.1896 d. 1951

but if that is her, where was she in the intervening years?

dathai
Roseanne is my grandmother. while Anne McCall is her mother, Christy was Rosanne's brother - my grand uncle.

I had most of the other info but I have Michael Francis Brophy born 1882 rather than your Michael Henry Brophy born 1876. The census records would put it at 82+/-1

Not sure what you mean by "mothers name
Margaret Fenlon but other child born same address of Bridget Fenlon."

@dathai re prison records - not sure I want to check the prison records lol. There are loads of records on familiysearch for brophy on the legal/prison records - obscene and abusive language, soliciting, drunk & disorderly and even stealing a greyhound.

Seriously though, they dont give addresses or ages so it's difficult to know if they are my direct relatives.

Strangely enough, when I searched Irish Genealogy church records for Brophy I couldn't find the ones listed about although using Google ('brophy & linenhall st') gets the same records-
Michl Henry Brophy- http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/bbf8e50259825
Catherine Brophy- http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/eaa90a0261371
Michaelis Fransiscus Brophy (parents- Gulielmus Brophy & Bridgids Knelon)- http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/a9bada0287972

In addition there looks to be another child in the database- John Joseph Brophy of 8 Linenhall St. with parents Wm. Brophy & Bridget Fennelly:

Aghadowey i first searched under Brophy /Fenlon no christian names ,then WM Brophy/Brigid no last name and then under the addresses,i did spot the Fennelly birth but as you can view the register it is written clear and distinct i did'nt think it could be a mistranscription. Dathai
