Hi LH l don't know for sure yet. Are you saying they were in the workhouse? Cuz l thought that might be a possibility but
wouldn't the address be given on birth certificate?
Iv contacted the RC church to enquiry if there child was baptised there. But if the family are in WH then their child may have been bapitisted in the chapel there.
Thanks for your thoughts

Hi Wexflyer
The birth certificate l have does not show an address anywhere. It shows district of Wicklow in the union of Rathdrum.
Date & place of birth Wicklow- name of father dwelling place Wicklow .& finally under signature of mother Wicklow.
Just wondered if anyone else had come a cross this before.
It's 1926 birthday James Keilty Labourer mother Esther Keilty New Bryce.I

Thanks for your thoughts

the details you posted has three addresses - all state Wicklow, i.e. the town
as posted before it's not unusual to just name the town.

which RC church have you contacted ? Rathdrum has been mentioned several times - this is the district not the place of birth

In 1911 census that Keilty family are clearly in the townland of Pollahoney NOT the Workhouse-

Pollahoney townland- to the west of Arklow town-

you can see details of the Poor Law Union/Registration Districts and Registrar's districts for County Wicklow here https://www.johngrenham.com/records/county_gro.php?search_type=full&county=Wicklow

district of Wicklow in the union of Rathdrum as you mentioned on your cert is last on this list.
