AustinQ, Nyx & Chris remarkable research with name variants & 2 census entries. Still leaves me with marriage cert for Edward (GRO 1875 QS vol 01D page 704) with his age 23 (b.1851/2) stone mason Father's name Edward Murray dec. stone mason. But witnesses G Braithwaite, Fanny Braithwaite. So got to be same Edward but father entered incorrectly should be Michael.
Many thanks
Sheila

That's great Chris- that burial (with address) brings it all nicely together.

Edit: FMP also has burial for their child James on 24th Jan 1849- age 8 months, address Vine Street.

So, although the age is out, is it Michael (Mary's son)- has he been added on the 1851 census twice? Both born in Ireland, both Stonemasons, both married.

I think the family were from Clonmel too.

Rambling

Rambling Report 26 Mar 2018 12:17

I think it might be :-)

AustinQ

AustinQ Report 26 Mar 2018 12:14

Nyx- I was just going to ask the same. Thought it looked like Clunmell- so Clonmel could be right

Rambling

Rambling Report 26 Mar 2018 12:12

Austin Q can you make out the place in Ireland? maybe Clonmel?

AustinQ

Yes- snap. Except the original gives Mickle as born in Ireland

Thanks Nyx & Maddie. I will follow these up . The Murray, Edward Attridge 1850 & Michael marriage to Jane Attredge looks a possibility despite difference in birth year.
