What sort of information are you looking for? military details? family?

If Platten Road is correct then here's the family in 1901-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Louth/Westgate__Drogheda_No__3_/Platten_Road/1569362
1911- parents married 38 years, 8 children (7 living)
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Louth/West_Gate/Platten_Road/573365

Online baptisms for Dundalk Drogehda (St. Peter's) go up to 1881-

Yes, but what sort of information are you looking for? it's difficult to help when we don't know what you want.
