Geraldine, do you have Norah's birth certificate if you know that her mother's name was Julia?

Do you have any siblings for her please?

This seems to be brother Edward living on his own in 1901.

Gee Report 2 Nov 2012 17:51

That marriage for 1894 does not have a Thomas Sullivan as a possible groom

The 1911 census state they married in 1902, although I realise that could be out by a year or two!

Gins, Norah's birth registered as

Honora Fox b. 28 March 1871

EDIT

Was wondering if she had been married before and married Thomas using a different surname. 30 would be quite mature in those days for a first marriage.
