Suggest you search for him in 1901 census by initials.

« on: Wednesday 29 May 24 11:31 BST (UK) »A lookup please.
I don't have access to 1901 Census of Ireland.
Could someone help please with a William Brady in Mountshannon?
He died on 28 Mar 1906 in Mountshannon as a bachelor, aged 67. He maybe the same who was the son and informant at the death of Susan Brady, a farmer's widow in Mountshannon on 2 Sep 1885.
How can I find out if William Brady left a Will in 1906?

I'm struggling to understand your first post so perhaps you could clarify the information/sources.
Where did you find that birth? is it under Helen or Ellen? exact date and place of birth please.
Details from death certificate please- name and age.
Have you found Helen/Ellen in 1901 and 1911 census in Ireland or England? please give details so that we can also view the records.
... my Nan Helen (Ellen) Brazil dob August 1880 of Philipstown, Kings County.
... Through Ancestry I believe I have found Helen (or Ellen as shown in some records) her siblings and parents John Brazil and Ann Mulready . Other than this, my father was born in London in 1922 and sadly Helen passed away in London in 1937.
...I have Irish census records that show Helen's family. I have searched for Helen (Ellen) in the 1921 census also burial records without luck. I have a death certificate (dod 25th Oct 1937 in London) for her but nothing on that mentions anything relating to her past.

The death for Jane McLaughlin in 1870 gives her age as 68 so born 1802. Aside from the age the distance from Belfast would make me think the 1815 Belfast baptism is a different person.
Here's a possibility for John McLaughlin's death- different townland but same area, a widower, born c1795-

However, here's another possibilty-

What was John's occupation and what are the details of informant (name & residence) on Jane's death registration?

Monaghan / Re: Drumbin Road- What townland
« on: Monday 27 May 24 21:21 BST (UK) »I didn't say living in the same house, I left it open. Whether in the same house or townland it still answers OP original question.
You didn't 'leave it open' but clearly said
It was implicit in my earlier response, but OP was wondering if any relatives lived with or near Jane Graham. Her death registration appears to show her son was living with her.

World War Two / Re: Black Troops during WW2 in Britain
« on: Monday 27 May 24 12:30 BST (UK) »
Not everyone was happy to Black American soldiers in England during WWII. My sister went to school with a girl whose mother was English (not sure where she lived) and was a GI bride to a white American soldier, I remember her saying that girls she knew married black American men who professed to be Native American rather than African American which cause ill-feeling amongst their families in England.
From another point of view, I worked with a black veteran who said they weren't always treated well by other (white) soldiers and were segregated into their own units. He did, however, say that the people in Britain were much more welcoming when stationed there.

The death registration does not say that Jane Graham and her son were living in the same house. It only says that they were both living in the same townland.

Many thanks, Ladyhawk, for all that work. It was looking so hopeful until her parents names appeared
