MICHAEL PATRICK POLLARD born 8th May 1888 in Dublin City was one of my grandfather's siblings, yet I can't find out what happened to him.

The 1911 Dublin census states his parents Joseph & Margaret Pollard had 13 children born living but only 9 alive.

I know that 3 died before 1911 and 9 married as I have all the appropriate certificates.

I cannot pin Michael Patrick Pollard down on the 1901 or 1911 Ireland Census.

A sister and 2 other brothers emigrated to the USA at different times, and died there, but I can't find Michael Patrick Pollard in the USA..

My Grandfather came over to England and settled in London, and the rest of his siblings died in Ireland.

I have searched Trees on here and Ancestry, with no luck!


:-S
