Evening myluck, ambyrne1 and shanew147,
Apologies for my late response, just got home, very cold and windy in Brisbane tonight
Myluck I believe the children's parents are Robert Harvey IRVINE and Kate i.e. forenames, census 1901 Kate widow is living with son Robert Harvey and wife -Residents of a house 1 in Xavier Avenue (North Dock, Dublin)
ambyrne1 I wonder if the two different address reflect home and business?
Briefly Robert Harvey IRVINE and Nathaniel IRVINE were half brothers, both inherited property from their father William IRVINE, Kenmare, Kerry. I have documentation that states Nathaniel lost his wealth and went to stay with his brother Robert in Dublin in the 1860's. Nathaniel's wife Anne (dont think they married) and his three children went to USA. Nathaniel died Dublin 1876 aged 70 years.
