Robert and James had a brother called William aswell.  He lived at number 7 Ballytramon, and he was a carpenter.  I love it that the Irish census is now online.
"7" is the number on form B of the 1911 census, not a house number. The townland is Ballytramon and there is no street or house number listed for that household.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thanks, I am fully aware of that.  My Grandad was raised there and also lived there when he was married and had children.  It was known to our family as Floods woods and we know there were NO house numbers or street names.  It makes it easier to say the number to clarify exactly who im talking about  in the family as there are several "same" names.
