Research Notes
- Date of birth: Edward's age 50 in 1901 census[1] suggests he was born around 1851. Like many people in Ireland he aged somewhat surprisingly between the census of 1901 and 1911 (pensions came onto effect in this period), so his age "70" in the 1911 census[2] can safely be assumed to be overstated.
