The Mulvey’s of Bray

[Keziah2]

I’ve hit a bit of a brick wall in trying to track down the parents of Nicholas Mulvey c1875, Bray Common on the 1911CR.  He gives his place of birth as Dublin.  He is married to Mary (nee Berry) with 3 children.

I’ve found 2 other Mulvey families living Bray Common in 1911:
Stephen Mulvey c1878 also born Dublin with his wife & 5 children
William Mulvey c1884 born Co Wicklow, wife Catherine (nee Byrne) & 1 daughter. 

I found a post that suggests the parents of William are James Mulvey & Julia (nee Hayden). 

Nicholas did name a daughter Julia in 1905 - happy coincidence or link to his mother?

Could this be 3 brothers living in Bray Common?

& yes I’ve found all the prison records for Nicholas Mulvey of Bray

Any help in tracing the Mulveys of Bray would be so very much appreciated.

His marriage record gives his father as James

Thank you yes I’ve just noted Nicholas gives his mothers name as Julia Brien when he married in 1895 - that seems to link William & Nicholas

This marriage shows Julia Heyden as a widow with father John Brian
