Birthplace?

Birthdate?
[edit]This article on Lawrence Bulger again has two different birthdates, 1870 appearing in two places and 1875 in three places. The 1875 date does appear in a number of secondary online sources, but there is no reference to any of these in the Wikipedia article, and I don't know which, if any, is reliable. The 1870 date is confirmed in two independent transcriptions of primary sources at familysearch.org (the footnoted one from the register and the other at [1] from the contemporary index). If the 1875 date of birth and the 1887 date of his appearance in the Leinster Schools Cup are correct, he was only around 12 years old then, which is most unlikely. His age is 31 in the 1901 census, 41 in the 1911 census and 58 in the English death index for 1928 Q1, all suggesting that the 1870 date is correct and the 1875 date incorrect.
There should also be some evidence of his age in the TCD records if anyone has access to them.
I have been looking without success for a record of the marriage of Lawrence's parents and would be very grateful if anyone could give me any information as to where and when they married.
I have appealed to FruitMonkey to please ensure consistency of birthdate throughout the article and add as much documentation as possible for whichever date is correct. Pwaldron (talk) 00:26, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
