Hi Sandra, yes that's him parents Andrew O'Donoghue and Margaret Tallon, we'd in St Andrew's church (Westland Row) Dublin. 1901 census is his family who moved to Cork in the 1890s. I believe he may have married and stayed in Dublin. Thanks J.

Can only see 1 record & for a T O'Donoghue 2nd. Btn. Royal Dublin Fusiliers.
Pte. 4714 died Mar. 20th. 1900 at Ladysmith.
No other info so no way of knowing if it's him.
His service number indicates joining in early 1893.
Just about possible.

Unfortunately not.
I can't see him on the medal rolls but I haven't tried name variations.
