Individual Details

James TOBIN

(Abt 1836 - Prob 1923)

According to his marriage certificate, James's residence prior to his marriage was Ardcarn (Cootehall).

In the 1901 census, James's age is given as 60, Catherine's as 56 and their son James's as 27. However, their ages are given in the 1911 census as 74, 73 and 42 respectively. We also told in the 1911 census that James and Catherine had been married 50 years and had nine children born alive, all nine of whom were still alive at the time of the census.

A death record has been located on the Ancestry website for a James Tobin who died in the Boyle registration district of Co. Roscommon aged 91 in the first quarter of 1923. Given that the Tobin surname was relatively uncommon in Connaught I believe this record is related to James.
