My dad is the Michael in this case. I'm always interested in Leitrim Doyle's where this combination of father/son names occur. Do you know the history of your John, born 1894, and the names of his children? It is just an outside possibility that there may be a connection. My dad claimed his birth to have been 1908, but I'm not at all sure since he had no birth cert. or baptismal evidence - he could have been a 'Black Sheep' so to speak. Please let me know what you think. Many thanks, Kevin. Hello Jim,
