Yes you have, I looked on there aswell, at the census' but it was where he was born that I couldnt find out, becuase I was also trying to find out about his parents??? Did it have any of that information on it???

Sorry Louise, it just says he was born in Ireland, not much help I know. Catherine Kennedy's mother, Margaret was also born in Ireland. No connection I'm sure but it would be very helpful if they put where in Ireland. Be too easy for us then!
