Hi
I can't see a Sarah Ann MacCarthney/McCarthy or any other variation of the name born in 1888 in Lancashire.
The nearest is Sarah Ann McCourt or Sarah Ann McCready.
How do you know she was born in England?
Doesn't the marriage certificate give her father's name?

I don't thin Sarah and son were born Lancaster -there is no birthplace in that column, and 'OX' i the column relating to people born abroad - whatever that means!

Not much help is it! In 1911 there was a McCardle family living at that address.
