Good thought Maggie but he is shown as son of a father aged 41 with wife aged 35! Siblings above him are 17,15 and 14, siblings below him are 4 and 3. This does suggest a 2nd wife, but I can't find marriage of Thomas/Michael Grady/O'Grady to any Norah or Jenny! And 'patsey' aged 4 is shown as son in 1891 at same address. |

Just from what you've said, Could the Patrick aged 23 on the 1901 census be the father's brother or cousin - a lodger - hence mentioned after/in the middle of the children? . maggie |

Sorry, he appears as Patsey Grady!!! Son aged 4!!! RG12/98----sorry, no good, I don't have folio number just page 62! But father is shown here as Thomas Grady aged 36[?]. The point is that they are at the same address and the siblings are the same!! Wendy |

1901 census lists him as a General Labourer. The image is definitely '23' for his age.........although it does seem odd, in view of the fact that he is recorded after the 14-year old. There's a big gap then in ages............to the youngest two I can't see them in 1891........ could you give the refs Reg |

I am trying to help a friend. I am tracing a Patrick O' Grady b.c. 1888 with father Michael, according to 1913 marriage certificate. In 1901 he appears aged apparently 23 but I think this should be 13[looking at the age of his siblings and parents] Father Michael b. Dublin, mother Jenny b. Marylebone. BUT in 1891 Patrick appears aged 4 at the same address, with the same siblings, with father Thomas b. Ireland and his wife Norah b. Ireland! I could accept that there may have been a new wife. I accept that Michael may have been Michael Thomas or Thomas Michael, but BOTH different? Advice please. |
