      NOTE - Birth cert has DOB as 2 Nov 1883, registered on 1 Jan 1884. 1939 Eng & Wales Reg has DOB as 13 Oct 1883 and death cert has DOB as 16 Oct 1883. I have altered my record from the 16 Oct to the Birth cert date 2 Nov, as it is the earliest and possibly the most accurate, BUT, as it wasn't registered until 2 months after the birth could be inaccurate and maybe a baptism date, id available, would be able to show a more accurate DOB. - Matthew Falvey 3 Dec 2025

      Ted said my Grandmother lived in India for 11 years when Grandpa was in the Army. Some of the children were born in India. My Mother was the eldest and has always talked about living in India. She had to help with the children and went to school there. Also picked up some of the language. Maybe that is where you came to a blank after Grandfather left Ireland. - Helena Kent 12 Jan 2005

      Gran (Hannah Felton), Mom (Eily Mulcahy) and all of us went to to visit his (William Clothier's) address as his wife (Lena Venn) was still living there, but even though it appears that she may have been in she did not answer the door, (Gran could see the curtains moving and someone peering out from behind them), this would have been in the late 60's.

      A neighbour said that her daughter looks after her. - Matt Falvey.
