Hi my great grandfather, James O'Neill born in Athy Kildare. His relative Joe O'Neill had a Big Band - Stardust Orchestra. Has anyone got any info.
I have Census 1901 of a James O'Neill living in Offaly Street, 1911, 14 RathStewart, but I am not sure if this is for the James O'Neill I am looking for in 1901 he would of been around 6/7/8 and there is a James O'Neill Age 5. And his twin Guertrude

About when was your great-grandfather born? Any info on his parents, children, spouse? When was he married and where? When did he died? Did he emigrate?

Hi Patricia, James Joseph O'Neill, 1894 B. Killcullen, Killdare-1938 D. Rosslare Harbour
I am just unsure if the census I have found for his family in Kildare is correct, he is one of a twin in the census, and I can't remember my grandfather ever mentioning a twin, I'll keep looking anyway
