« on: Saturday 20 February 16 23:42 GMT (UK) »
HI ,
 folks looking to track a Nicholas Whitty. Born in parish Rosbercon/tullagher/listerlin in 1860s. brother of Ellen Whitty Broe Rathmines/rathgar area and Edward whitty (bootmaker)new ross. Nicholas moved to dublin and may literally have followed in his brother Edward's footsteps and also worked as a bootmaker. May have married a Margaret Molloy. Have Traced Ellen and Edward - would love to track Nicky.

Who are the parents of your Whitty family?

The mother's maiden name isn't recorded but otherwise look good for your Nicholas and the family in the Census heywood found.
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/7c32210097879

In 1911 he says he was married 33 years, that plus this possible death in 1907
http://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/1da2e712929391
Would add up quite close for the marriage and age of death recorded for that death record matches fairly close for Catherine re the Census.

The mother's maiden name would have clinched it.

There is a Mary Whitty with those parents baptised Glenmore, Kilkenny 1868.

I asked re parents because of the marriage already quoted of Nicholas Whitty and Catherine Carroll who look good in the censuses.

I can see where you have Margaret Molloy- she is a godparent with Nicholas Whitty to one of Ellen's children. You would need to search for a marriage there but the Whitty/Carroll marriage is looking good.
