Surnames: Gilbane and Gill
I've come across a Francis Gilbane, born 30 April 1887 and died in Los Angeles on 24 May 1956, age 69. His mother's maiden name is Gill and I believe he is the Francis Gilbane who is the son of James Gilbane and Mary Ann (Gill) Gilbane of Aughriman South, Letirim, Ireland. It is likely that Francis is the twin brother of James Francis Gilbane. According to the 1901 Ireland census, James and Francis were 13 in 1901, placing their birth dates at about 1888.

Other children of James and Mary Anne Gilbane are Patrick, b. abt 1883, Mary, b. abt 1884, Maggie A. b. abt 1885, John b. abt 1887, Michael b. abt 1890, William b. abt 1891, Peter b. abt 1892, Jane b. abt 1894, Kate b. abt 1895, Joseph b. abt 1896, Lizzie b. abt 1897 and Bridget b. abt 1898.

Can anyone confirm that the Francis who died in Los Angeles is the son of James and Mary Anne Gilbane? Does anyone have further information about any of the siblings?
