I was confused about the twins. I'd interpreted it as James being a twin. That's why I explained how to find birth registrations for a James Brady and his twin. I think I misunderstood. Dotty, did your aunt tell you that James was a twin or that he had a sister and brother who were twins?

I now see that Dotty said in replies 27 & 30 that James was a twin.

I'm going off what my aunt told me.

 I have been told that James Brady was a twin and had another sibling and that his mother passed away in child birth and they father left them in a orphanage.
And with his daughter telling me this I thought it was fact

I don't know if James mother passed away having him and his twin or another sibling

Now back to the Mary Anne Brady who died 1919 in Cavan district that you mentioned several times earlier but declined to provide further details for.
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1916/05236/4450173.pdf
Mary Anne Brady died 4 July 1916 at Foirtown, married, age 38, informant was husband James Brady who registered the death 10 Aug.1916 and she was a farmer's wife. If this is James Brady's mother then 1) he was born on or before  4 July 1919 not in 1919, 2) twin siblings would have been born before 1916.

I think you meant James was born on or before 4th July 1916.

Absolutely correct- James born 1916 not 1919.

These three threads are full of unsubstantiated stories, changing details and apparent errors.

In all the records I looked at yesterday, and I looked at hundreds, I could find no trace of any Brady twins to fit. Leaving aside, just for a moment, the exact date and place of James Brady's birth (with or without a twin) it would seem likely that he was quite young when his mother died and he might have little contact with his family in later years.

From what I have been told off someone who lives in the village my grandparents lived in that knows the family was that my Grandad was homeless when he meet my nanna and that he was from out of the village. And that a family took him in and he worked for them. And he use to do work in the UK too.

Have you considered that your grandparents may have married in Britain or in Northern Ireland? There was work to be had for men and women on farms and in factories.

I searched all Ireland for marriage and only thing close was the Brady-Cunningham marriage found previously.

So, the wedding wasn't in Northern Ireland either.

I was told my grandad was a twin and had another sibling and that they mum passed away in child birth and they father left them in a orphanage. I have just gone back and looked at the message my aunt sent and she said my grandad was a twin and his twin was a sister and he had a brother and that she passed away in child birth and they father left them in a orphanage. I don't know if she passed away in child birth with my grandad and the twin or with his other sibling. I have found twins born on the 23 July 1919 in Dublin and they where both boys and than the girl was born after.
Sorry for going off the information I was given that all I can do

[Dotty13]

I hadn't considered that they could of married in the UK

I understand that you are just repeating what you have been told by your aunt but it may be that she was not told correct information.
In any case, many, if not most of the details you have, cannot be backed up with solid evidence such as certificates.
Even if the Brady family in Fairtown is not the right Brady family (and it is the one, so far, which seems to make the most sense) I did not find ANY James Brady ANYWHERE in Ireland that had a twin sister or even a twin  brother.
