Hi,
The Death Cert. 1903..
I see one in Killala in 1905, with the correction.
Was Tobias married to Ann Walsh?
This may make it easier to trace.

Hi
I found them.
Problem is, no Thomas, But Thomas must have been his second name.
There are....
Michael, Tobias, Walter, Maurice then Maria and Ellen.
Year of birth for your Thomas, please.
