So in 1861 should mum Margaret be Mary?
Are the ages of the two eldest children, Margaret and Edward, the wrong way round?

Only posting this as possible birth of child taken from 1861 census.

If parents did not marry children may have Walsh/Welsh surname.

WALSH, JAMES       -  No Mother's maiden name

Some catholic baptisms indexed at Soho Square, St Patrick (I don't have access)
Parents Edmund/Edward and Maria/Marie/Mary Welsh (Walsh)
Mother not Margaret

As they are indexed
1843 Jacobus Darcy
1846, born 1845 Edmundus Darcey
1851 Margaret D'Arey
1853 Jacobus D'Arcy
1855 Thomas D'Arcy
1862, born 1861 John Valentine D'Arcy

Edmund Darcy, 30, a shoemaker, in the newspapers in 1854. Also his brother Michael.

Thank you Jonwarrn, that looks to be right. May I ask how you located that info? I am really new (and a bit rubbish) at dealing with my Irish and RC ancestors. Any pointers would be welcome.

Hi Jonwarrn,

I have a copy of John Valentine D'arcy's birth which states 'Margaret Walsh' as his mother. Before that I had 'Mary' as his mother's name as all the stuff on ancestry was indicating that was so. It appears a lot of the census for the D'arcy family is a bit suspect. Not sure if it was captured incorrectly, or whether they were not completely forthcoming with the correct info. Thanks.

Hi
The baptisms are on findmypast, England Roman Catholic Parish Baptisms.
I only have access to full transcriptions and images at a library.
The free index is very useful though. All but two of the D'Arcys were born in the same year of baptism.

Mary / Margaret is a bit of a conundrum.

Hi all,

Thomas and John Valentine D'arcy were registered at St James, Westminster and Bloomsbury respectively. A little more background - Edmund was a master shoe and bootmaker. They had 2 shops one in Conduit Court and another in 'the Cut'.
