Michael Talbot was born in Dublin in 1940, the eldest son of Patrick Talbot and Kathleen O'Keeffe. His sister Ana was born in 1942 and brother Patrick in 1944. An older step-brother, Denis, was born in 1935 to Patrick and his first wife Bridget Maher.
The family business comprised a grocery shop, the Lea Dairy, in Dun Laoghaire, County Dublin.
Michael went to CBS primary and secondary schools in Dun Laoghaire. After leaving school he worked as a bank clerk for 8 years before becoming a statistical assistant at a dairy research farm in County Cork. In 1968 he took up a post at the University of Edinburgh. He met and married Helen Durant and they had two children. He retired from his job at the university in 2000.

Just a question about Dun Laoghaire, rather than relations. I sent my cousin, Brian Richardson, b 1945, a photo of the Cook Record Shop. He reckoned it was close to the Lea dairy and he remembered your sister? Ana Talbot.
I was born D/L 1957 and have no recollection of either place. The only record shop I remember was Muarray's, opposite the Bamboo.
Any information?
Not sure if this is the right place for this? If not, I apologise.

I noticed that you posted on Kathleen O’Keeffe's profile. Her profile does not currently have a profile manager, so no one will be notified about your message. I happened to see it as a result of Greeter duties. If you upgrade you will be able to adopt the profile and build it into your twig of the WikiTree.
If you choose to upgrade and adopt the profile, you will be able to add your sources and information and improve the profile. Then you can connect it to your branch of the tree. Any improvements that you make will go a long way in improving the branches of your ancestry.

Many thanks for your warm welcome to WikiTree. I would appreciate help in how I go about adopting the profile for my mother, Kathleen O'Keeffe. Regards, Michael
I suggest you upgrade. There is no cost and it will allow you to add your ancestors to WikiTree. Just go to your profile and click Upgrade near the words Guest Member, then answer five questions.
Once you have upgraded, go to your mother’s profile. You should see an [adopt this profile] link next to where it says No Profile Manager. If you click that, you should be added as the Profile Manager.
On your profile go to the Edit tab and on the right side of the screen, click [add mother]. Enter your mother’s WikiTree ID in the field for existing WikiTree ID and save. This will connect you to your mother.
Let me know if you have further questions
Wendy
