Is This your grandfather Thomas? a.. Try looking on the 1881 British census there is a Thomas Kavanagh born in Jarrow Durham with parents Andrew and Dorothy plus brother Andrew on what looks like # 5 Brancker Street Toxteth Park Lancashire England RG11; Piece: 3647; Folio: 154; Page: 49; GSU roll: 1341874. a.. Another one to look at would be 1871 British Census there is a Thomas Kavanagh who was born in 1861 in Durham living in Yorkshire and living with his parents Daniel and Elizabeth plus siblings Margaret Daniel, Elizabeth, William and Michael RG10; Piece: 4311; Folio: 57; Page: 43; GSU roll: 846979. a.. There is also a Thomas Kavanagh born Mar 1873 - South Shields, Durham, Tyne and Wear plus a Thomas Owen Kavanagh Born May- July 1871 in South Shields Durham, Tyne and Wear that I found on the free BMD index that fits with the 1881 Census I found both of Thomas and Margaret's 2 children's birth and his marriage too so this looks like the best matches. E is trying to find my Great-grand father Thomas Kavanagh his wife, Margaret Mc Coy. On the 1911 census it states that her and her partner, Patrick McIntyre, were married for some 20 years, which I know to be untrue as she was first married to Thomas in 1894 in Lanchester Co Durham, giving birth twice to Catherine in 1896 then to John Thomas in 1898 - he died in 1900 in Newcastle upon Tyne.
