Liverpool & South West Lancashire FHS - Forum

I am looking for any information on Margaret Allen ( Donoghue ) born 1885 in Toxteth , Liverpool , Mothers Name Mary born 1868 .

She did live in Clive Street and then Park Street , Liverpool 8 with her Aunt Catherine Duckwork and had Four Brothers Denis, John , Michael and Patrick .

Any help would be appreciated .

Regards

Tony Donoghue

Do you have access to Ancestry? She's on the 1891 census with her parents and her baptism is also there. Can't find her after that.

Amended 28.1

I apologise for the confusion Margaret shows on records as Allen her Mothers Maiden , and also Donoghue her Mothers Married Name, Margaret was born before Marriage .

The name should have been Duckworth , this was her Aunt Catherine Married Name who was also Marys Sister .

Margaret did also live with Denis and Margaret Allen ,her Mothers/ Aunts Parents .

I hope again I havn't further confused the issue its like " who's who "

Margaret Donaghue born 29 August 1885 baptised 13 Sept 1885 Our Lady of Mount Carmel. Daughter of John and Mary (nee Allen) Godfather Thomas Sheen, Godmother Catharine Allen. Married Daniel Mulholland 1909. Following census 53 Park Street Liverpool, head Mrs C Duckworth, D Mulholland nephew, Mrs Mulholland nephews wife, Dennis Allen nephew. Daniel was a fireman in the merchant service. Moya

Sorry I missed this out of previous post. Mary Allen & John Donaghue married in the September quarter of 1885, Margaret born in August, so they might have "just made it" Her birth was not registered until the December quarter. Moya

Moya,

Thanks for replying , it seems I was wrong Catherines Married name being Mulholland , I assumed it was Duckworth who was in fact the Head of the Household .

Margaret and Brother John have never been mentioned in the Family these only came to light during my research and are a mystery to where they finished their days .

I know what happened to Denis their Brother ( My Grand-dad ) plus Michael and Patrick his younger brothers who moved to the North East of England and apparently settled and Married .

Hi everyone
Daniel Muholland baptised St Joseph's 3rd April 1881 to Henry and Catherine nee O'Brien, godparents Frederick & Joanna Jones.
On the left hand side of the entry it has been written 1909 to Margaret Donoghue & other latin words I can't read.

Tina

Lancs BMD has the marriage 1909 Daniel Mulholland - Margaret Donoghue, Toxteth Reg office or Reg attended.

I saved the document but when I tried to enlarge it, it became distorted.
Enlarged in Anx it definitely says marriage contract, possibly Easter.
(added they married in Sept qtr so ignore Easter!)
I don't know how to section this part of the page and save.

RC Baptisms often refer the marriage to the baptism and vice versa as the Baptismal Certificate is usually applied for at the time of marriage.

I am not too sure on the name of the church where they married, it could have been St Malachy's.

Jan

Thanks again for all your help I am happy Margaret was a Donoghue and did Marry , it would have been St Malachys that was our local church were my parents Married .

The St Joseph's mentioned may have been in Rose Place , by Scotland Road .

Best Wishes

Tony

Thanks guys, how did you do that??
