Hi,  I have recently started looking at my ancestry.
  Another branch of the family of Denis Collins and Mary Quinlan, my paternal grandfather was John Collins, brother of Mary Kate and the twin brother of James.  John married Christina Smith at Llanelly Wales in 1920.

OOps! sorry, misread the ages on the 1911 census.  John and James do not appear to be twins.  Christina Smith was from Dublin.

Hi.  Now found birth records at https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie James and John were twins.

Hi Ray

Yes, John and James were twins.  Glad to hear from you.  Not a lot is known about them and in fact I have been told they both died at sea quite early in life.  Clearly that is not true at least for John.  I replied to your PM and am happy to share everything  I have.  I've done some substantial research here.

Cheers!
