I found this information on the pilot site for family search. The address is:
http://pilot.familysearch.org. Sometimes if your lucky enough the parents names are on the page, but in this case it wasn't.

Good luck
Regards
Tracie.

Christine....
Only 3 family's listed for the Co.Cork 1911 Census (Free to search)..
Interestingly 2 RC and 1 CoI.....
Do you have anything else on the family at all..?

Hi Erin, sorry its been so long, I think he was protestant and died of consumption aged 25 returning to his hometown Clonakilty to die, he had been discharged from the Irish guards. Think he had a brother Charles and think parents names were John Synan and Deborah Langton, I am currently trying to find out where he was buried, Not easy. Cheers Chris
