Hi Mary,
Always great to hear from any potential family members.
William George Conway and Kate (Catherine) Dolan married on the 3rd April 1899 in the chapel of St Michael, Dublin. As far as I knew they had 3 children: Herbert in 1900, Kathleen in 1906 and "Florie" as yet untraced. My dad can remember meeting "Uncle Herbert" and also "Auntie Florie", but knows very little about them.
William George Conway was the son of Herbert Simmonds Conway (watch maker) and Emily Brook. He was born in 1873 in Coventry and died in 1937 in Birmingham. He had 7 brothers / sisters (so far).
Kate (Catherine) Dolan died in 1953 also in Birmingham. My dad can remember her fairly well as he had to help look after her towards the end.
Kathleen Mary Conway (1906 - 1985) was my Grandmother. After she moved to this country from Ireland she spent her whole life in Birmingham. She married twice.
First to Albert Fellows in 1926 and they had a daughter Kathleen born later that year, who sadly died a couple of years ago. (Leaving a son, a daughter and two grandchildren.) Albert died when she was young, following an accident at work.
Her second marriage was to James Terry in 1933. They had a son William in 1935, (my father). James Terry died in 1972. I have a brother and a sister as well as a nephew.
I hope all or at least some of this information is useful. Please get in touch if I can help any more.
Cheers,
Martin
ps A HUGE THANKYOU to Dathai for the links and information he has posted. I had let this branch of the family slip a bit and I now have many extra routes to explore.
