Hope somebody can help, tried many years ago.      Looking for a Thomas FitzGerald, born c1820s,
married a Bridget Sheehan, c1840s.     Son Thomas C FitzGerald, born 1850, Rathmines.    On Thomas C. marriage cert.  1874  states his father was deceased..    Father Chief Engineer.

They seem to have only one child Thomas, and I don't see Thomas Sr. in the Will Calanders, you'd expect an Engineer to at least have an Admistration.

I wonder as there appears to be only one child if Thomas Sr. died shortly after his son was born?
