In Response To: Re: 1911 Census ()

My grandfather was also listed in 1901 as born
"Ireland". He assumed that he was born in Cork
city where he remembered living as a very young child , prior to his family moving to Maughold.
Fortunately the Pensions dept. helped him to get
a birth certificate so that he could claim his OAP.
He was born at least 120 miles away from his
supposed birthplace , probably in his maternal grandparents' home. His birth had been registered one
day sooner than he had celebrated it for 65 years.
