Looking for relatives/family geneology of Victor Emanuel Cavanagh in Manchester, England

Question

My father's father was Victor Emanuel Cavanagh ... he lived in Manchester, England b.1912 and d.1951 ... I cannot seem to go beyond him and would love to determine where to look next and to make the connection eventually back to Ireland.  Cannot determine when the Cavanagh's came from Ireland (Possibly Dublin/Enniscorthy) to England.

Answer 1

The birth entry for Victor on FreeBMD in the March quarter of 1912 show his mother's maiden name as "Hullock". A search of the marriages with Cavanagh & Hullock shows Charles Henry CAVANAGH married Catherine Ruth HULLOCK in 1902 in Manchester.

Lancashire BMD & Lancashire Online Parish Clerks are also useful websites for research in Lancashire.

According to Lancashire BMD, Charles Henry CAVANAGH was born in 1875 in Ancoats, Manchester. His mother's maiden name was DARLINGTON. This ties in with the 1911 Census entry for Charles & Catherine (who was born c1885 at Selby, Yorks) which shows one of their children with a middle name of Darlington. They were living at 350 Oldham Road Ancoats Manchester.

This is the entry for Charles in the 1911 Census at Family Search

His baptism entry is also on FamilySearch & includes a copy of the parish register image.
