Hi Paul,

Thanks for your message. I hope that someone with information makes a connection with you and helps you to further your research.

Do you know anything else about his family? I did a search for Aidan in the 1901 census records. There are a couple that match in terms of age. Perhaps if you know more about the familiar you may know if any of them are relevant:
