Both on the same website.

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 ?

Gael thank you for this info,does it give the mothers maiden name,thanks

Thank you all for helping,Margaret no I dont think thats the right one,the one that Kay has put down must be the right one as I remember my father telling me we had married into the Widger family,who were a big horsey family,Erin it might be a brother of Joseph,again thank you all so much
