Doyle family of Maesteg

[crazycanuck]

My grandfather's name is Richard Patrick Doyle and he was born in Maesteg in 1921. His father was Richard Doyle and his mother was Margaret (nee Hough).  I believe that Richard was born in Tipperary, Ireland.  I'm trying to find out anything about the Welsh Doyle family.  I know my grandfather had a brother and 2 sisters, but anything beyond that I don' know.

Can anyone out there help at all?

Thanks!

Richard Married Margaret Hough (7 Aug 1889 Maesteg - died 1976) on the 11 Jan 1911. You should be able to obtain Richards father from marriage certificate.
