museumtom Posted 21 May , 2019 Author Share Posted 21 May , 2019 Yes indeed and there is an Elizabeth Canna in the 1911 Census, and the right age! Newtownmountkennedy is also in Wicklow. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wicklow/Newcastle_Upper/Kilpedder_Town/896990/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Posted 21 May , 2019 Share Posted 21 May , 2019 (edited) Said to be married in both the census and on DC, but I can't find her marriage in Ireland nor E&W. There was a marriage of a spinster by that name in 1896 aged 22 (so also born abt.1874). Edited 21 May , 2019 by Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark1959 Posted 22 May , 2019 Share Posted 22 May , 2019 (edited) Been looking.. trying to trace possible sister The Catherine in Anglesborough in 1911 appears to have been born 15/9/1878 (transcribed record on ancestry). So she was actually 32 at the census not 34. Father Denis, mother Margaret - mother nee Hogan. Does not get us very far.
