Could anyone help me to trace the baptism records of, or do a look up to find Thomas Kevins born between 1850 and 1855, on Clondalkin Catholic registers , please?
Thomas's father was also Thomas Kevins. Any help would really be appreciated. Thank you. Ann

Thanks, AOGG. This is the correct person, but I have all census information to 1911. It's only on 1911, that the town of his birth is mentioned. When he married in 1874, the age on cert is 23, and at death his age was 61 in 1916!
I'm hoping that I can trace his family to Clondalkin.

Hi Ann of GG,
Again, thanks for checking. I've seen the above census entries before (I've been researching him for a while!), and I've been on the website you mentioned above, and on Griffiths. But I need to be sure of his origins before I can find siblings etc.
Cheers, Ann
