Good morning Lynley, Sorry I have not got back to you sooner. It would be interesting if there was a connection. With Thomas being born circa 1858 to John and Margaret Morrison, it is bit hard to work back to your Morrisons. Not too sure if the name Morrison was a name common in Dublin. Where did the name Morrison originate from I wonder? It would be great if BMD sitea around the world gave you as much information to work on as the Queensland and New South Wales BDM Websites e.g. Here is the death of James Edwin Morrison in NSW, the son of Thomas and Mary Ann Morrison of New Quay, Wales 14361/1944 MORRISON, JAMES EDWIN Father THOMAS Mother UNKNOWN @ SYDNEY 1944 is the year of death, for some reason the informant did not know James' mother's name, which is strange as his wife Annie was still alive. Sydney is where the death was registered. Death of his wife Annie 606/1962 MORRISON, ANNIE JANE Father GEORGE SILAS Mother ELIZA @ SYDNEY 1962 year of her death. Hope you do well in your search.
