Thanks Jo.... No 9 Lower Baggot was my G/fathers shop so it looks as if Laurence Purcell is the manager and Thomas Smyth is a boarder there..???? Thanks for finding that.....I have to say I found that census record ages ago, but had forgotten about the Smyth guy....he still could have gone to the st...

Hi Jo. Yes that's them, I can only think Thomas was the one to go to the U S as he was single and he is not on the 1911, the 1911 has John as 47, where as he was 40 on the 1901...???

Mother Catherine 64
