Couldn't find siblings or parents' marriage for John

Hello Col,

Thank you for Mary's Baptism record.

Possible death for John is not correct he died in 1952

Possible death records for James & Owen:are incorrect James was born in 1909 so he was not born in 1900 and Owen is O'Donnell not McDonnell and was born in 1915 so he could not have died in 1886

The Marriage record was most helpful It indicated that John was previously married and I found the death of his first wife in 1901. I also found other shildren from other marriages in the 1901 Census

Now here they are in the 1901 Census.

However we did not get to the issue at hand the whereabouts of Johns sons after April 1st 1911 or their birthday

One of these five, one or more may have immigrated to England, my problem is I cannot find any trace of  these 5 Children

Hi again Fred,

I searched ancestry & Family Search for the lads but to no avail I'm afraid.

Also tried cd Memorials of the Dead Galway & Mayo but all records are too early.

I don't know which sources you have trie but here are a couple of suggestions: 

The Ellis Island site is free & has emigration records

This  www.ukcensusonline.com requires a monthly payment but has the UK Census of 1921

Thanks for your help Col
