Get a copy of the marriage cert. If he knew his father, the name will be recorded

Just hunting for them in 1851 census

1851 England, Wales & Scotland Census
22, Bates Square, Sheffield, Yorkshire & Yorkshire (West Riding), England

Francis Nulty Head Married Male 33 1818 Bricklayers Labourer Ireland
Maria Nulty Wife Married Female 25 1826 - Barnsley, Yorkshire, England
Francis Nulty Son - Male 1 1850 - Sheffield, Yorkshire, England

Not seeing any other obvious marriage so you might have to get that one for father's name, and take a chance on it.

Slight stretch on name transcription but this could be another child, linking them to Chorlton before going to Sheffield?

Was just wondering if I should get Francis born 1850birth certificate and hope it as his mum and dads name on it

Rambling

Rambling Report 4 Jul 2019 18:32

Francis born 1850s cert will have mother's maiden name on but we already know that's Davis.

Francis senior is not showing up in baptisms in Ireland but that is quite early ( way before civil registration of births) and hard to find, especially as the 'Carrick' given as POB might be one of several. So the marriage cert is your best bet I think. It may have other family members as witnesses that you can trace.

Hi Rambling thank you for helping me the other day.As promised I have got wedding certificate back . It says Francis Mcnulty married Mary Davis.They married In 1844 Chorlton. Francis was full age and Mary looks like minor . he was a widower and she was a spinster.Francis was a labourer They were both living at the same address before marriage looks like no 2 Midlock street but can not work out the last word might start with H . Francis father was called Francis all so.he was a labourer . Marys father was called William Davis also a labourer . Witness was Thomas ? and Bridget looks like Cavannah . thanks Janette
