I am trying to trace my great grandfathers family. His name was Patrick Reade (born around 1892) in we believe the Ballyhale area. At some point he moved over to the Knocktopher area and eventually met and married Mary FItzgerald in Kilmaganny RC church in 1915. His fathers name was Michael Reade and his occupation was a servant. Any information/help in finding out names/dates etc would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jo

Located the 1901 census for Patrick and his family in Ballyhale. I did not find the family in the 1911 census but did find a likely record for Patrick with another family in Kiltorcan. There was another Reade family nearby. See records below. I also found an 1893 baptismal record for Patrick. His date of birth was June 16th 1893 and his mother was Ellen Fanning. See record below.
