Sorry, I can't see anything about Michael's birth or parents / siblings.


There a Drain marriage, in Warrenpoint, Co Down - don't know if relevant.

Ann Drain
in the Ireland, Catholic Parish Registers, 1655-1915
Name: Ann Drain
Gender: Female
Event Type: Marriage
Residence Place: Warrenpoint
Marriage Date: 25 Oct 1855
Marriage Place: Newry, Down and Armagh, Ireland

And various other records of Drains in Co Down, but no mention of Michael, and I can't tell if the other people are related or not.

The 1861 census for Eliza (and Charles McVeigh, if he's relevant) says Ireland, Co Down.

It's been mistranscribed as Combe Down, but later corrected on Ancestry.


And 1891 for Michael says Ireland Co Down on the image.

This the only 1851 Henry Drain birth:

DRAIN, HENRY mms DADEN
GRO Reference: 1851 J Quarter in WHITECHAPEL Volume 02 Page 629


But the censuses say he was born in Salisbury.

This is just a long shot for Michael & Eliza's marriage:


EDIT:
Actually, probably not, as Eliza was born Co Down, per 1861 census in next post.
