Thanks to the free irish website where Birhs Death's and Marriages are now available to view.

He Died 27 May 1888 as JOSEPH Patrick Pollard, Plasterer’s Child aged 3 weeks of Bronchitis and Asthma at 18 Bolton Street. Margaret Pollard, Mother, was the informant.

Thanks Liam. but I've already got that info.

That's Michael's grandparents in the Thoms and Street directory.

My Grandfather, James was born at his Grandparent's home too!

Hi' Teresa,
I couldn't find any reference either to Michael apart from the baptism, however I did find this, which may be of interest to you.

1862 Street index for Dublin
16, Bolton Street, Thomas Pollard [ Stucco Plasterer ]

1894 Thoms Directory
17, Bolton Street, M. Pollard, haberdashery & Chandler.
18, Bolton Street, Mrs Pollard,

* 1901 census should read stucco plasterer *

MICHAEL PATRICK POLLARD born 8th May 1888 in Dublin City was one of my grandfather's siblings, yet I can't find out what happened to him.

The 1911 Dublin census states his parents Joseph & Margaret Pollard had 13 children born living but only 9 alive.

I know that 3 died before 1911 and 9 married as I have all the appropriate certificates.

I cannot pin Michael Patrick Pollard down on the 1901 or 1911 Ireland Census.

A sister and 2 other brothers emigrated to the USA at different times, and died there, but I can't find Michael Patrick Pollard in the USA..

My Grandfather came over to England and settled in London, and the rest of his siblings died in Ireland.

I have searched Trees on here and Ancestry, with no luck!
