Fairly sure that I found mention of the Cunninghams a while back in the 1911 census online. If any of you have a moment, it'd be a great help if you could check that for us. (Hoping there won't be any sad news about the Cunninghams, as with large families like this at that time, there's often the sad recording of the fact that some of their children died.) Thanks to swordscookie who went off and did some online census legwork for us: "The 1911 Census shows James aged 35, Katie, 34 (Born in Kildare 1877ish) Mai 4, Joseph 3 and Kathleen 1 as the family in the house. In addition Mary Osrant 20 and Bridie Osrant 13 are listed as household servants." So we now know this is James Cunningham, and his wife, Katie. Also assuming "going down in stairs", that the oldest girl here is Mai (approx. 10/11); Joseph (approx. 9/10); and the raggedy tomboy is Kathleen (approx. 7/8)...
