Margaret Ward, born 1834-38

[mfjcase]

My great-great-grandmother, Margaret Ward, was born in Mayo around 1834 or 1838.  She was the daughter of Ann (Annie) Maguire and a father by the name of either John, Thomas, or Peter Ward (Margaret's marriage, her daughter's baptism, and her death certificate each listed a different first name for her father).  Margaret had a brother named John Ward (he may have been named after his father, indicating John was his name as well, or he could have been confused with his father on one of the documents). 

She moved to Edinburgh, Scotland by the 1850s and married Thomas Coyne of Longford, where she later gave birth to my great-grandmother, Ann Coyne.  I know I don't have much to go on, but it's all I've got.  Thanks for any help you can provide.
