To reply to your email: * My g-grandfather, Michael Timmons, appears to have been born c. 1842-1844 (his age on 1901 census is 57, and in 1911 age 69), so if any of the 14 Michaels 1790-1857 were born around then, I would be delighted for the info. * I was convinced for the last couple of years that "my" Michael married Mary Kelly in Carlow in 1865, but have disappointingly been proved incorrect (long story!). But I can't find any other marriage of a Michael T to a Mary K - this probably means they were married pre 1864, and since I don't know where or when, I'm stuck! * Thanks for the info on Timmons (and variations) in Dublin and Kildare - will keep it on file for possible future reference. * I tried the LDS pilot site but it hasn't been any help - as you are probably aware, the records are badly incomplete. For instance, not one of my father's siblings are listed, but luckily I know have all their info already. * The reason Christopher Timmons b. 1869 is not on your CD is because he was born in Dublin City in March 1869 - so you're correct, the CD doesn't contain Dublin City listings. * Thanks for looking at the 1911 Census. You're correct about no Christopher being listed (I can't find anything for him except his birth and christening record - perhaps he died/emigrated?). But Michael g-gf is definitely on the 1911 census as age 69. * Elizabeth Timmons married my grandfather, Christopher O'Rorke in 1907, and they are listed in the 1911 census. Again, thanks very much for your help, and I would be delighted if you could give me the info on any Michael Timmons born Kildare 1842-1844. Happy hunting!
