....and a daughter in Wales with MMN Pouch[e], probably born in Ireland.

I think the cousins in Ireland need a little more prodding.

Looking on FamilySearch for children born in Ireland with mother nee Pouch gives possible surnames.
I don’t have time to go through them just now, although if Margaret was born 1933 they maybe to early.

You’re right I think the cousins do need a good poke! Thing is most of them are 70+ and not wizards with emailing back. I do have one cousin in Kildare who I’ve been emailing lots, he doesn’t know a lot about Margaret when she came to Ireland with her father Edward.

There is plenty on Edward but not a lot of info with my Grandfather and his sister. Sadly the block on Irish records makes it hard to look for these people.

Is there a records office in Dublin? I’m going back over in October/November. Maybe I can look there and see what I can gain access to.
