James Gunnery - Dublin 1880s
« on: Sunday 12 March 17 07:54 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find James Gunnery born possibly 1880-81 and married to Margaret. They lived at North Brunswick Street, Dublin. There is nothing I can find for James in the 1901 census though I have found him on the 1911 record. Some searches of the Irish BMD records show him married to a Margaret Higgins though I have no other clues to this.

Anyone with knowledge of Dublin may be able to help?

I think this is perhaps James in 1901

The record I posted first shows father as Lawrence. There is a marriage to Ann Smyth in 1879. Lawrence dies shortly afterwards in 1881.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to my search. This has given me a starting point to probe deeper. Paddy Gunnery, a good friend of mine left Dublin in 1963 and with his departure went everything the can recall about his family. He will be delighted to hear and read this, appreciated.
