Help with finding Isaac FULLERTON b 1925

[Westby]

Isaac Patrick Dominic FULLERTON
Born Tipperary, 2 August 2025

Married Bridget Cooney in 1946 in Liverpool

Died 14 January 1984, Halifax, Yorkshire

I'm trying to track down the above, whom I understand was born in Tipperary in 1925. I don't have any evidence to confirm his birth, or any information about his family. He was a student/inmate in the St Vincents Approved School (reform school) in Wales in 1939, when he was 14, so he and his family must have been living in the UK by then. My understanding is that the school was evacuated from Liverpool to Wales when the war broke out.

I'd appreciate any information about Isaac or suggestions on where I might search. Ancestry hasn't come up with any suggestions.

Thanks and regards

What does the marriage certificate say about his father?

Where does the information about Tipperary come from?

When does he acquire Patrick Dominic?
Not in 1939,
Not at his marriage (assuming he is the 1946 one to Bridget Cooney)
is there a WW2 record for him?

is this him?  no Dominic

Yes the marriage should name his father.

Also you can look for children but if the marriage was 1946 they could easily be alive so please do not name them. 

Free BMD index has Fullerton/Cooney births.  Was Isaac related to you? 

Has his wife passed away?

Just an observation, but Fullertons and variant spellings in Tipperary are non existent in the 1911 Ireland census.

Added: And 1901.

As I suspected.  A transcript on a subscription website shows a son Isaac Dominic baptised in St. Patrick's RC Church, Lisburn, County Antrim, on 5 August 1925 for parents Thomas Fullerton and Mary Catherine Colvin of Bridge Street, Hilden, I know it's him because the transcript shows a subsequent annotation to the record to say that he went on to marry Brigid Cooney on 24 September 1946 in St. Clare Arundel Liverpool.

Here is the birth of Isaac's older sister, Mary May, in 1921, I can also see another sister born c. 1930:

Here is the parent's civil marriage registration:

A transcript of the church version of this marriage record identifies both parents for each party, namely:
- William Fullerton and Annie Crooks;
- Isaac Colvin and Frances Fenlon.

Possible sighting? The age fits.

Kirkby Man Fined £20
Pleading guilty to stealing a typewriter valued at £40, Patrick Isaac Fullerton, aged 38, of 8 Buxted Walk. Southdene. Kirkby. was fined £20 at Liverpool County Magistrates' Court yesterday.

Fullerton, who was stated by the police to have a number of previous convictions, was told by the chairman of the bench (Mr. T. C. Ellams) that he could not expect such leniency again.

Superintendent W. J. Little, prosecuting, said the machine was stolen on May 31 from the office of Messrs G. W Hawkins and Sons Ltd., of Arbour Lane. Kirkby Trading Estate. Fullerton, in court, said he realised he had been stupid,

Great find as ever, gaffy.
Looking at a skimpy tree (with photograph though) Bridget Cooney’s father was Garrett and was from Tipperary.

There are a couple of local newspaper reports from 1931 and 1932 indicating that Thomas Fullerton of Bridge Street in Hilden was nearly drowned (was rescued) and got into trouble with the law due to mental depression (he was described as an ex-serviceman who fought in the war until wounded).   Just thinking of possible triggers for moving to GB.
