Is that Patrick or Murtagh?

If someone was born in 1944, they could still be living and we are asked not post those names.

From the thread before the one I referred to with more information (I see some was from me  ;) )

https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=812320.9

The marriage certificate would give you his father’s name to confirm.

Here is 1851, Bradford - family Search shows two separate entries because the census goes over two pages.

Pat Conroy  10 yrs b Ireland
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SPMD-9TL

Mart Conroy (census reads as Murt)
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SPMD-S34

If this were your family - baptism is in Rosenallis parish

Pat Conroy 19th January 1840 - right hand page 4th one down
Parents Murt Conroy and Mary McDermott
