John Turbitt in Bandon 1866
« on: Friday 13 May 16 21:19 BST (UK) »
John Turbitt Esq. was resident in Bandon in February 1866 at the time of the marriage of his daughter Mary Ann to William Wagner of Belfast. John Turbitt may have been from County Tyrone or possibly Derry but I cannot trace his family connections. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

John Turbitt's wife at least seems to have Co. Tyrone connection-

Thank you for that. I was aware of those marriages but have been unable to trace John Turbitt or the Wagner marriage any further.

I also see online that he is mentioned in the book "Bandon County Cork. A social history" by Catherine FitzMaurice but am unable at the moment to access a copy to check the reference.

Did John Turbett die in Toronto in 1873?  If not, disregard, if so, this mentions daughter Emily who married Thomas Crumley (in 1869):

Also died 1873, Isabella Turbett, wife of John Turbett, again mention of Thomas and Emily Crumley, could Isabella be Isabella Edwards?

GRONI shows a reported age of 44 at death, which may be a bit light.
