My 2nd great-grandfather James Edward Lucey was born in Queenstown 1 Oct 1848 to James and Mary (Welch) Lucey. James came to Boston with his mother and brother John in 1853. The father came over in 1852. A sister, Anne, stayed in Queenstown and married John Mann. They had several children and lived at 36 Harbour Row in Cobh.

Hello Dave, have been looking over old queries and here we are. You have done a lot and appear to be hoping a relative finds your post, if we had a volunteer in the area they would have answered I hope. We do not look up living people and have a one hundred year rule when searching. However civil records post 1864, start year are now free to view here upto 1923 for births, 1943 for marriages and 1973 for deaths. You click on civil and sign in but site is free, also COrk church records are also on this site.
https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/en/ You could see if there is a private Cobh Facebook page dealing with genealogy or indeed a Cobh Facebook page, also this site may assist.

As no doubt you are aware Lucey is a Cork name so many of them.
Good Luck
