My maternal grandmother Kathleen Cullen was 14 years and 11 months old on census night in 1926. The means that she was too young to be included in the 1911 census which was held on 2nd April 1911 - she was born just 12 days later on 14th April.
In 1926 she lived in Ashford Street in Stoneybatter in Dublin. What number I do not know, but the family address is later the very nearby 5 Ashford Cottages. She lived with her father Richard, mother Annie, and brothers Dick and Des. Her occupation is "At school". She was born in Dublin, though both her parents were from Gorey in Co Wexford. Her father Richard was a plasterer working for the Office of Public Works.
