Where did you get his birthdate from?
Marriage certificate should list his father's name and occupation and his birth certificate will list both parents as well as exact place of birth.

I would suggest trying to locate actual certs for Thomas to confirm the details - the 1911 census shows that Thomas was living near Dunmore East* about 18km south of Waterford City, born in Waterford City and born in around 1870. Waterford city is in the registration district of Waterford and the familysearch civil index  shows two possible matches - both in 1869 (no matches in 1870).

the index details for these are :

 Name: Thomas Dunne
 Registration district: Waterford
 year: 1869
 volume: 4 / page: 1062

 Name: Thomas Dunne
 Registration district: Waterford
 year: 1869
 volume: 4 / page: 1061

you could confirm which one is correct by searching for a marriage cert - this would give his fathers name and occupation and make it possible to check this against the birth certs to establish which birth cert is correct. This looks a possible match for the marriage..but I dont see cross-match with Margaret at the moment..

  Name: Thomas Dunne
  Registration district: Waterford
  quarter and year: Apr - Jun 1898
  volume: 4 / Page: 389

you can order certs from the GRO by post using these index details - see : www.groireland.ie

* The district is actually transcribed incorrectly on the census website it should read Killea, Dunmore Town.

It looks like Thomas may have been posted in Co. Cork at some stage as part of his coastguard work - as the children were all born in that county. I dont know if you have any clues to the family's life at that time but there are a few births that look possible matches for his children, that could place them in Kinsale & Youghal - both towns by the sea with coast guard stations.

Name: Eileen Dunne
registration district: Youghal
Record type: BIRTHS
quarter and year: Oct - Dec 1901
volume: 4 / Page: 637

Name: Margaret Mary Dunne
Registration district: Youghal
quarter and year: Oct - Dec 1902
volume: 4 / Page: 676

Name: Kathleen Jane St John Dunne
Registration district: Kinsale
quarter and year: Jul - Sep 1907
Volume: 5 / page: 273

They are not certain matches, but they fit locations where a coastguard and family could be based, plus some of the middle names match.. although I wonder what Kathleen's extra middle name is about ?

no problem..  I have a coast guard ancestor myself that served between about 1831 and 1856. They tended to move around quite a bit which can make finding details difficult.

Hi Colin.
Can i ask you if you are a relative of Thomas Dunne ?
He was my  great grandfather.
I couldn't believe my luck  when i found this site tonight.
Actually it's the previous generation, that of his father John(jack) that i am now interested in.
regards Jacqueline. (Hopefully cousin).
