You're a star, Kingskerswell, many thanks.
I'm afraid I don't know the maiden name of Robert junior's mother.  Will the marriage certificate tell me that, as it does in the UK?

Irish marriage certificates don't list mothers' names- thought English ones don't either but perhaps I'm mistaken although Scottish certificates certainly contain much more details.

Irish marriage certs contain the same details as English (and presumably Welsh) certs around this time. See - Details included on a Marriage Cert
