Long shot...............on FBMD there is a death of a Catherine Mahon 1867 in West Derby aged 0?? below is a guy aged 44.......could there have been a transcriber error??

Coming from a tree on Ancestry ....... maybe we could know what information there is actually evidence for, that doesn't come from a tree on Ancestry?

Trees on Ancestry are commonly not worth the bandwidth they take up.

This is Denis with his new wife 1871, if it helps to clarify.

1832 seems early?

Elaine, could you give the name of the child born when Catherine died?

As I said if this is Denis just before he married...could this be her brother perhaps?

What was wrong with the baptism record of 15 Jan 1832 given?

i have but got no reply..there been no action on there for 6mths. on wedding cert,the bit with peters occupation is not on nor are witnesses...all i can see for witnesses is "the mark of john whit-? and the mark of catherine L and just under that is jass? or jars?" sorry i cant help any more than that...have just looked on the copies the lady sent me and that not complete,so it wasnt my printing error. i know,cos the lady printed out for me,that catherine was born 1836/37,married in 1861 and died with hepatitis and effusion on the brain 17th march 1868....wot i CANT find out is WHERE she was born,so that i can look for a baptism myself,then i wouldnt be a nuisance to the GR helpers. elaine.x

This is all coming from a tree on ancestry...have you contacted the tree owner Elaine?

jax

No death for her in 1868 on freebmd

If you look at the 1861 census before Denis and catherine marry Denis is lodging in a house with a Michael Rice born Ireland...could he be her brother?

jax

Elaine, you need to get acquainted with FreeBMD

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

(For one thing, there are almost always two couples shown on a register page, and FreeBMD shows all names on that page. Only the certificate shows who married whom for sure.)

There's no death of a Catherine Mah* in 1868 to match your info. (Or late 1867 -- if the child's birth was registered in March quarter 1868 s/he could have been born in late 1867. What was the child's name??)

i tried baptisms....but dont know where she was baptized...looked at the church she was married,but they dont have any online records. I'm very sorry for any misunderstanding..i thought you started a different search for each branch of the family. and thankyou,

Denis was...so more than likely

jax

They were obviously RC...........perhaps she was born in Ireland?

Where was Denis born?

Who witnessed the marriage?

What was Peter's occupation?

Birth reg'n didn't start until JULY 1837......and until 1875 there were no penalties for NOT registering
