Thanks everyone,

He was widowed himself in 1905 in Tipperary from Grace Thomas. Left with Beatrice, Eva and Ivy all under five. He remarried Jane Hefernan in 1907 in Tullamore Eire. All went to India and Walter died at sea on the REWA and the the girls and Jane returned on Dongola back to Ireland all in 1911. Found them lived with a sister Dempsey in 1911 but think the 3 older girls were put in orpanage some time later.

Can't find any info of this or Jane further marriages.

Cheers again
