The couple had two other children: Honora, baptised at Dunmanway in March, 1857, and Michael, baptised at Bantry (about 25 km west of Dunmanway) in December, 1861.[/LIST]
    Here’s the family mentioned by Fiver, as described in the 1881 England Census entry for 6 Gloucester Gardens, Bethnal Green:

    Despite some confusion over the children’s ages, this appears to be similar to the family of the second Julia. Norah, of course, can be an abbreviation for Honora.

    In 1881 Robert Pawle [sic] and his wife Julia were also living in Bethnal Green.
    The 1879 marriage record for Robert Paul and Julia Hurley shows​ she was living at 6 Gloucester Gardens, Bethnal Green​ before the wedding, so we have a match.
