    Possibly the father, James, pre-marriage in Tipp.

    Party 2 Name ELIZABETH PURCELL
    Date of Event 14 February 1912

    Cheers, that is just what I wanted, confirmation that he was son of James & Elizabeth of Bohercrowe. I will look for his marriage record.

    Many thanks

    Yep, I had the marriage record and some of the children's birth records. I didn't know about John.
    I already had death details of James & Elizabeth & some of their children.

    Thanks again.

    Just looked at his age - 31 years old so should have been born 1912/13, the only son for this couple showing on Irish Genealogy at that time was James. Maybe he had 2 names James John or else a transcription error.
