Census 1828 Patrick,Michael and Thomas on plot 72

census 1860 Michael and owen

Have got back to the marriage of Michael Woods and Cath Daly on 23 December 1834 which is all correct 

the only matches I can find for his parents and to match with the 1828 census are

Parents Peter Woods and Cathe Ruddy

children

patrick 10 January 1815

Thomas 4 November 1817

Michael 15 November 1820 but would be 14 at marriage is it possible 

Owen 3 April 1822

James 29 July1829

the other one found is James Woods and Sara McQuaid children

Michaei 2 October 1798 James 27 March 1801 Owen 19 June 1815

so no Thomas and Patrick and Michael has to be with them in 1828

could anyone please help or advice me as I am now stuck

    You refer to the 1828 census but I believe what you reviewed were the Tithe listings for Creggan civil parish in 1827. Thomas Woods, Patrick Woods and Michael Woods were separate lease holders. They were likely related but no way to determine from the Tithes how they were related. They would not be children of Peter Woods since Peter's children were 12 or less when the Tithe listings were compiled and a child would not be leasing land.

    Potentially there is a connection to James Woods but again no way to confirm.
