Scarlett0017,
I think you mentioned you have a photo of Leo. I saw one in a tree which was from a group photo of some of the siblings, I think.
Did anyone in the family ever speak of Peter? I know it’s a long time now but just wondered.
Peter may have been baptised with a second name or just decided to change, if we are correct in the assumption that Peter is Leo.

Yeah thats the photo i have in my family tree on Ancestry, it was from a group wedding of sorts. 
I'll ask one of my aunts for a run down of my grandfathers brothers and sisters again, one of his brothers was in the army around the time of the civil war here in the 20s, and he did have a military send off when he died.

There is a death in 1985 of an Anthony O’Brien late of Athy and Lambay Island buried in Glenealy Cemetery Wicklow a brother perhaps.

Lambay Island yes that could be him, how do you get copies of death certificates from then though, i have a few other ones i want to get that aren't digitised online either.
I only want copies for research purposes.

This looks like his marriage - 1943 - full age. A witness is Michael O’ Brien.

Yes that looks promising, Michael his brother and Maryanne his sister.  We knew Maryanne as Molly though, used to go visit when we were kids.
