The article below from the Kilmore Free press states that he inherited a farm near Thurles from his brother and was to go back there in three months time.

I had a look in the Irish census for 1911 for Tipperary and could see no Joseph Fanning.

So If anyone knows anything about this Joseph Fanning please let me know.

He was living in the Kilmore area in Feb 1905 as he had his watch stolen!

In 1907 his name was on a list of voters being objected to probably because they were no longer rate payers which indicates he was no longer a resident. Unless he returned to Ireland and died some time between 1907 and 1911.

I can’t find any death records for him. Curious to know if he is connected to my family.
