grandfather in ww1?

[Taidquest]

hi berni,gonna ask a silly question here,do you have your fathers
birthcert' or have you seen it at some stage?I ask because  your dad
 was born 1919 and if his father served in ww1  he may have still been
a soldier when your dad was born and  it would be down as his occupation
 on the birthcert'. this is how we discovered one of my grandfathers
served in ww1,his marriage cert' also listed him as a soldier.
you may have checked this already but it was a long time before I even
 thought of getting my dads cert' because I thought I knew everything that would be on it.

hi anne
thats a great idea
i dont have my dads cert but am confident
i am tracking down he was born in the town
he said he was
his parents were master tailors
but quite right a birth cert may say something
else 
thanks for the help

Hi Berni,
I wonder if your grandparents got married in Arvagh, My Mother said that they had 13 children cos she used to help Mrs O'Shea cook the dinner for the children.

Just a thought.
