Thanks everyone, but I already had this information as I'm doing a family tree and had laready researched this.

My wife's father John Gaynor died when she was 5yrs old in 1975 he was 25yrs older than her mother. The thing I can't find is a concrete family address with a house number or farm address in this case, she has never had any contact with any family on her fathers side and her mum died 2yrs ago from dementia and had thrown out everything of importance before she went into the care home.

I'm waiting on the heritage DNA test results and hoping this will shed some light on living relatives..heres to hoping  ;D

Thanks Again
Rob

Hi, The exact house where the family lived, well, house 7in the Census.
The third choice down in the Census, House and Building returns....
click on that page.
Their house is near a Public House, owned by a Patrick Ahern.
They only way to find anyone is to go through the BDMs of Gaynor's in the area.
