Wow thanks everybody for all your help.
My record are confusing as there are so many Michael Floods involved.
The Michael and Alice Flood in my records seem to agree wit the Flood family in
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Palmerstown/Ballyfermott_Lower/1290805/That was Michael J Flood 1864 to 1901, he died on the 26th August 1901.
Alice his wife died in 1942 but i didn't know she remarried. that is very interesting.
On the 26th July 1860 Michael Flood of Fox and Geese left in his will granted at the Principle registry to Michael Flood with and Address in Drimnagh Lodge Clondalkin.
Thanks for the information Dathai on Violet Vale. I will go down there tomorrow for a look as i work in Kilmainham. I have been going to the cemetery in Goldenbridge when the weather permits to look for there headstones.
Nora Flood married the Journalist Dick Hooper, brother of Senator Patrick Hooper and son of Alderman Hooper editor of the Daily Herald in Cork.
Catherine Flood died in 1911
Eileen Flood married Michael Morgan
Phyllis married John Mooney.
thanks for the links. i will look into all them.
I think Michael Flood that married Alice, father was called John Flood. His brother was James who lived in Stone house. This would make James that died in December 1862, Michael Floods uncle. James also had a brother called Michael Flood who lived in Fox and Geese and died in 1860.
Thanks again Dathai, i came across the thread on Re: Stone House Lodge Ballyfermot/Inchicore a few months ago and reading it again last night made me post this thread.
the issue i think here is going back all the Floods were called James, Joseph, John, Michael and Pat.
All these people married and called there sons James, Joseph, John, Michael and Pat who in turn did the same thing with the odd Thomas and Francis thrown in.
I don't think ill ever find out what happened to the my family but i will keep searching.
Regards
Paul
