Gave W.O'Brien father, then Miss N.O'Brien sister, Churctown as next of kin. He was in England on or before 1938. Lived in South East London. Anyone remember? Thank you.

Hi Bill,

Churchtown has a website with some useful contact details and I think I found the family in the 1911 census. If you email me at jimvaughan@eircom.net I will send on the links (I have been unable to load them on to this site).
