Trying again. Looking for any family of James Kavangh of Ballyedock, Parish of Kilmokea, Barony of Shelburn. James is the son of Edward Kavanagh. Edward is my great grandfather. James was born around 1891. No one knows where he or any of his family went or are are now. Would love to find someone. Any help at all would be forever thankful.

These 2 families in Ballyedock in 1901 & 1911 (very likely to be related):

Your James seems to be in the 2nd household.
Still there in 1911:

Note that all of James? living siblings at that time are listed in the census.

There?s about 5 James Kavanagh births registered in New Ross around 1890. You might have to try several to get the right one.
The revaluation records in the Valuation Office in Dublin should tell you how long James remained on the Ballyedock farm (and who succeeded him).
