The 1911 Census return for the family
shows that Cecelia LEONARD was married 29 years with six children of which five were alive

This implies she married circa 1882 although there is no obvious record of a Patrick LEONARD and a Celia/Cecelia

Their family were by deduction
1 Annie b circa 1881 listed in 1901 as Rodger PATTON’s wife
2 Margaret Ellen b c 1883 listed on 1901 return
3 Kate that you state died 1919
4 Mary that you state died 1950
5 Patrick who died WW1 presumed record? as was previously in Inniskillings Reg#15231
6 Denis who died WW1 presumed Reg#11712 in Inniskillings?

Which then makes this family look correct on the 1901 census
However the 1911 census implies that one of the six had died by 1911??!

Do you have any of the children’s birth or baptism records?
This should give their mother’s maiden name and help your search

What information ideally are you looking for?

Just my luck, I for got to amend the death of Kate she died in 28th Dec 1906 age 22, of T.B her brother Denis registered her death have not been able to find out where she is buried, very slow response from the church,
basically I'm trying to confirm the family connection I have the War medal details of Patrick and Denis and was hoping for a address of where they lived when they were alive, and also to connect with any living relation,
awaiting at present Birth details from Roscommon and also Mary's death cert, hoping that will move me on more,
Thanks for getting back to me,
