Michael and Mary's marriage certificate.  It hasn't come out quite as well but definitely looks like William when you see it in the flesh, so to speak.

Thanks so much for all your help, everyone - you're all wonderful!

Looks good

I've not managed to find Mary in the 1901 census as Mary Gray

There's a 15 year old Mary O'Hara as a servant with the Lovely family

Was just going to post her.

I have been trying to find where you mentioned Parsonstown - and eventually found that it was connected to Michael Meagher.
The Mary in 1901 is in Knockdrin  which also covers Parsonstown.
However, I don't think we have any other links with Knockdrin - the O'Haras were in Taghmon parish.

She's there as a servant though, so possibly a bit of travel involved.  And her occupation was given as servant on the marriage registration.

My husbands just wandered through and muttered "the plot thickens!"

The places named, Parsonstown , Farrancallin, Clonkill are all very close to each other so would see very possible.

It would also make more sense of her sometimes using O'Hara on the children's birth Certs
