JEM (or JOHN) MEMERY m Annie Andrews

[aghadowey]

1911 census lists a daughter Rebecca in household of Annie Memery. Might be just a co-incidence but a William Memory married Rebecca Winter (quite a few children listed in IGI- www.familysearch.org) and a James Memory married Mary Winter (their children also listed there)- possibly 2 brothers married two sisters.

1911 census also shows a James Memery, fisherman born in Dublin City listed in Cork. Shown as married and age given as 25 but as he's only a boarder possibly not all the details correct.

Now that's very interesting!  Both of them.
I will have to think it out but sounds very possible.

You could be right, but how to prove it.
The 1901 census may reveal all..... maybe

best way is using marriage certs for both ... best match for Robert's marriage from the BMD index below

 Name: Robert Creese Memory
 Registration District: Dublin South
 Event Type: Marriage
 Quarter and Year: Jan - Mar 1887
 Volume Number: 2 /  Page Number: 601

He, his wife and all children list Ringsend as place of birth.

and a possible cross-match to his wife :

 Name: Susanna Rowden
 Registration District: Dublin South
 Event Type: Marriage
 Quarter and Year: Jan - Mar 1887
 Volume Number: 2 / Page Number: 601

Rebecca Memery (born 1867 Ringsend, Dublin) married Robert Rowden- she might be one of the people I found listed in I.G.I.
Also in same family tree Robert Creese Memery m.1887 Susanna Rowden.

Torbay Fishermen in Ringsend "... vessels were transferred to Samuel Pullen, Owen Bissett, James Memery ..." just partial detail available to view here: http://www.jstor.org/pss/30101258

An old thread here but perhaps worth trying to make contact-

Don't think this was mentioned yet-

Put ""memery" and "dublin" into search boxes and 10 results come up.

very neat... looks like a good connection to the Memery surname arriving in Dublin earlier in the 19th century with their new fishing technology. Presume that James/Jem/John & Robert etc are second or third generation..
