Have you looked for him on 1901 or 1911 Census?

Yes 1911 census has him living in keady as a boarder - occupation tailor and place of birth dublin. i just havent been able to find marriage cert for his parents of trace of other siblings or even records of him in dublin barracks to be able to shed any further light on family . . . .
