Karen, where did you get the middle name of Therese from as it's not on the 1915 marriage record or the 1911 English census?

The 1901/1911 Census shows all the Cotter family were born in the County Cork so this would not connect to your Annie Theresa b Ardmore in the Co Waterford...

What led you to the Co Cork Cotters' as a possibility....?

I've had a look at those 1901 & 1911 census and there's a strong possibility that Annie and Hannah are the same person, those names are interchangeable and birth dates can be variable.

However, I don't think it would be your Annie's family if she was already in England in 1911?

EDIT: What was Michael's occupation on the marriage certificate? The one in Fermoy in 1911 was a mason.

Could do with some more help please.

If Anyone has got access to Irish Records could they please look on the 1891 census for this family.

Residents of a house 30 in Cross Street (Fermoy Urban, Cork) from 1901 Census

Micheal Cotter b. abt. 1840 Cork head
Kate b. abt 1843 Cork wife
Annie b. abt 1883 Cork dau
Mary b. abt 1877 Cork dau
Hannah b abt 1885 Cork dau. Hannah was not on the 1901 census but was on the 1911 census, I'm trying to establish if Annie and Hannah are sisters or the same person., and that this is Annie Cotter's family.

I have not been able to find the birth of Annie Therese Cotter in Cork Ireland abt 1883 Father's name is Michael Cotter.

Thanks

Karen

From 1911 census in England Annie was married in 1906 to John Williams.

Daughter Eileen Williams was born 1908 Newbridge, Kildare, Ireland.

Annie and John did marry in Woolwich, London, England in 1915.

Any help would be appreciated. Karen
