Maurice Hyland

[Lisajb]

He does make it to New York aboard the Oceanic, indexed as Calli Hyland (with Morris pencilled in over Calli); aged 25, says he's from Mullingar and seems to be travelling with two others:

Bound for a Jos. Galen(?), address illegible in New York City; the woman above Jane Galt also from Mullingar says she is bound for the same place and it says "to brother" so perhaps Joseph's last name is Galt.  In the outbound record, Jane's last name looks like Folk.

Aha! Brilliant find. I have just been wondering what had happened to the chap who left Queenstown in 1902, just to rule him in or out.

Thank you.

I wish it was, but unless the registrar has made a mistake, my man’s father is Edward Hyland.

That list does not include fathers - Those were the people that got married in 1907 - so the choice for Maurice would be Margaret Ryan, Anne Connell or the missing name ?

These marriages are online.  Unfortunately this Maurice's father is noted as Maurice:
