I am particularly looking for a birth or baptism of a Josephine BOYLESON born about 1900 I believe in the Tipperary area. This is the information I have: Josephine married James O'BRIEN around 1919. Josephine and James had 3 children, James (Joseph) born 1920 Holborn, Lawrence born 1922 Woolwich and Rosalind B(ridges or Bridget) born 1924 Woolwich. Josephine had a 4th child, Donald Dennis born 1931 but not by her husband. I am Donald's cousin and trying to help him find any information on his mother. I have a marriage certificate for a Josie BOYLE to a James O'BRIEN at St Monica's Roman Catholic Chapel, Shoreditch, London, 1919. I have a gut feeling this is our Josephine and she just used the surname BOYLE instead of BOYLESON. Josephine O'BRIEN died in 1937 aged 37. She drowned in the River Thames. When their mother died I believe daughter Rosalind may have gone to Ireland to stay with family, not sure if this would be the BOILSONs or O'BRIENs. Rosalind returned to England and married an American Bernard KRAMER and she emigrated to Pittsburgh where she died in the 1980's. Sons James and Lawrence I believe went to stay with their Aunt, father James sister MOLLY,when their mother died. James married and lived in Oxfordshire and Lawrence married and eventually lived in Southy Africa where he died in the 1980's. Don't know what happed to Josephine's husband James O'BRIEN. I live in England so am reliant upon the internet for research. It seems BOYLESON is very unusual. Have seen various spellings of the surname, BOILSON, BOYLSON, etc. It seems those that emigrated to America from Ireland changed the spelling to BOYLESTON. I have seen on the internet that there were a few BOYLESON's in the Thurles area of Tipperary, now spelt BOILSON, and that there are still family members living there. I wonder if any of the above might mean anything to anyone. Any help gratefully received. Thank you.

Hi, Have you tried the Ireland 1901 & 1911 census? What was her fathers name & occupation on the marriage certificate?
