Hello again Terry

Might be worth looking at?????
www.census.nationalarchives.ie

In 1901, there is a Michael Widger (boarder, age 22, car driver) living with Joseph and Bridget Goulding. Am assuming this is brother of Bridget.

Now look at the 1911 census, Widger family, 17 Gracediu Road,Waterford.
There is a Michael, now aged 32, car driver. Perhaps back home with his Mum ?
