The 1881 census has Edward Jos. Hinds, age 2 and his brother John Thos. Hinds age 5 living with the Craine family in Patrick.

Are you assuming the name is Edward James or could it be Edward Joshua ? If so Brian lawson's marriage index shows a marriage to Lily Watson 1901 in Patrick.

In 1911 Edward Joshua Hinds sailed to New York with three other Foxdale miners. Since the burial index shows a Lily Hinds 1913 Edward may not have returned.
