| Marriage | Edward Doyle married Ann Doherty between 1 Jan 1920 and 20 Jan 1923 at New York, New York, New York, U.S.A.. Ann was a cousin of Helen who married Bernard. It is virtually certain the couple had no family. Several attempts have failed to find any record of the marriage but it is noted that when Edward returned to U.S.A. in January 1923, he was recorded as being married. |

Mary Jo Dennigan believed that Michael died on 12th April 1975, just 2 days after his elder brother John. This however can be shown to be not the case. The US Social Security Index and the Longford Leader both show that he died on 16 Aug 1977. |

| Death | Mary Doyle died after 25 Feb 1897. No trace can be found of Mary after the birth of her son Patrick in 1894. She does not appear anywhere on the 1901 Census. There is no evidence of her emigrating. Most of her children were in care by 1901. When her husband Richard died in April 1899 his marital status was given as "Married" but can we be certain this is correct. Taking all into account, it is assumed Mary died before 31/3/1901 and that her death was not registered. |

| Death | Richard Nicholl died on 24 Apr 1899 at Mohill Workhouse, Boeeshill, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland. Richard died of Dyspepsia at stated age of 60. The date and place of death states: "Union Workhouse, Mohill, Clooncarreen." This can be taken to show he died in the Workhouse, but was from Clooncarne. As his family home had been in Clooneagh, it is worth wondering if he was resident in the Doyle household prior to his death. |

Details
| Birth | James Diffley was born before 26 Mar 1854 at Clooncarreen, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland. 1901 Census shows him aged 35, suggesting birth year 1866 but 1911 has him aged 56, making it 1855. On his marriage register entry, he is shown as 30, making his year of birth 1860. His stated age at death in 1933 was 79, which would give a birth year of 1854. Leitrim Genealogy Centre has an entry of the baptism of James Diffely on 26th March 1854, with parents Peter and Mary. As this seems to match other known data, I am assuming it to be the correct date at this point. |
| Baptism | He was baptized at Bornacoola R.C. Parish, Mohill Civil Parish, Co Leitrim, Ireland, on 26 Mar 1854. James's Sponsors were John Diffley and Seraph (sic) Burbage.
