Elaine ..Have brought this over .So folk wont be wondering where the Co Mayo connection is from...
www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/records_office/thread/1263289

thnx a million RamblingRose...will try them. the names i am seeking are my gt gt grandad Dennis(denis?) Mahon(mahan,mahone?) the 2 spells for dennis come from census and marriage lists..as with mahon & mahan. the mahone is how mi dad said it was spelt. we know he was from mayo. we live in n.ireland,but used to live in galway,and when my dad came over every year we took him all over...when we took him to westport,he said that was where his family was from. don't know if this is correct,but until his death in jan. age 86,his mind was still very sharp.

EGB, could you edit the post two above to show the *census year*?

I don't think we should assume that either Denis's or Catherine's parents were in England, though.

Elaine...What addresses do you have on the MC and DC for Dennis and Cath...

Elaine..What date was the Marriage at the Cathedral ?
Was Brid Farrell a Galway girl...?

what year is this erin? my joseph died between 1861 and 1868,cos he was alive on dennis & catherines cert...but deceased on dennis & bridgets cert

second wedding to bridget in tuam cathedral was on 1st nov. 1873. on this cert spellings are denis mahon and bridget farrell. but on the a-i-m cert spelling is denNis mahAn ! so matbe tuam is a red herring? we visit tuam a lot...my daughter lives there,and my husband was reared there! hope this helps erin(presume you are irish,by the name...where you from?)

Elaine...1881...but he may have been a brother of himself...
You can check out 1871 Census see if Joseph is listed in the area...I dont have access or would have done it...

den & cath were both living lodge lane A-i-Makerfield. den still in ladge lane,and bridg as A-i-Makerfield(no street given)

at time of death dennis was living 4,schofield st. tyldesley

that lodge lane NOT ladge lane! erin..only joseph mahon in 1871 census was b.1807 and lived mount st. prescot. much woolton

Have you looked at Newton-in Makerfield....?
Plenty Mahon's there.

i didnt put a place erin..just put joseph mahon in 1871 census and only 1 come up

joseph the hairdresser is also on the 1871 census,having moved to prescot. joseph,dennis' father was living in 1861 but deceased in 1868...so he wouldnt be round in 1871.

Poor Elaine. ;)

Have I missed it somewhere? - what was Joseph's occupation on Denis's marriage certificate(s)?

If Joseph the hairdresser was living in 1871 he very probably is not the right person in any event, or why would Denis say in 1868 that his father was deceased?

pilot.familysearch has one death in Ireland in the right time period to fit:

i know janey :-( ! i contacted ann,who sent me the copy of cath and dens wedding cert..she has the same as me,with the end and beginning missing. she is going to contact the person who sent it to her...unfortunately it won't be quick,cos he dont have a computer. cant take any longer than getting it from the gov site...been wating over 2wks for jane e kellys wedding cert!

Elaine...You have the Heart across me so you do..!!

The Joseph Mahon (b 1827) may have been an elder brother to Dennis (just a suggestion) and he was still in Ireland 1863 when Harriet was born...the earliest Census he would show up on 1871 (jax) yesterday.

In the name of the wee man who is Jane Kelly...?
