Thomas Bernard Geraghty 1899-1938

[DeeBee58]

I’m looking for information please, on behalf of a friend, about Thomas Bernard Geraghty 1899-1938.

Looking to find out who his parents were, any siblings, any children (legitimate or otherwise)?
I believe he was born in Leicester in or around 1899 and died in about 1938 and married Lucy Adams.
Hoping someone can help with this search

Kind regards
Debbie

I don't know if this is the same person who is searching but, in the Leicester Mercury 7th October 1991, there is somebody (named but might be living) looking for information about the family.
It includes a picture of his grandmother, Margaret, a midwife.

It also mentions Thomas from County Mayo, Cyril, a police officer who died in 1983, and John (Alfred), the father of the enquirer, who died in 1985.
