Andy one help me why she is described as Cty Mayo and Galway on different censuses in order to help me find her?

South Africa / The more I think
« on: Saturday 31 July 10 21:14 BST (UK) »
The more I think, the more I believe my disappearing great grandfather headed for SA. His name was Blundell. The first name I am convinced he changed: if not both names. I believe he went to SA in 1897. I may be wrong. Indications are that his brother (Joseph ) went in 1892 to SA. and It might be that they went together. (No sign of Joseph either). Joseph was a baker: a trade that works the world over : his brother was less skilled than that. Joseph was born in 1867 his brother in 1861. Can anyone help me find either of them?
