My great-great grandmother died giving birth to twins.  She was married to Daniel Goodwin and she gave birth to Bertha Goodwin (my great grandmother).  Bertha's mom and twin died during the delivery.  About a year later Daniel Goodwin (my great-great grandfather) remarried.  He married Anna Lamb in Monaghan.  He emmigrated to Upstate New York Daniel and died in the Utica, NY area.

I am looking for where in Monaghan they lived.

Welcome to Rootschat  :)

I'm struggling to find the family anywhere in Ireland with the information given- no marriages for Daniel, absolutely no Bertha Goodwin, no matching marriage with bride as Anna Lamb, etc.

Is this the family in 1880?
Daniel Goodwin   Self   50   Ireland
Ann Goodwin   Wife   40   Ireland
James Goodwin   Son   19   Ireland
Mary Goodwin   Daughter   16   Ireland
Bessy Goodwin   Daughter   14   Ireland
Hugh Goodwin   Son   12   New York
Daniel Goodwin   Son   10   New York
Patrick Goodwin   Son   8   New York
Nelly Goodwin   Daughter   6   New York
John Goodwin   Son   2   New York

James A Goodwin   Son   36   Ireland
Bessie V Goodwin   Daughter   29   New York
Daniel P Goodwin   Son   28   New York
Nellia A Goodwin   Daughter   22   New York

There was a Philip Goodwin in Coraghy, Magheross, at time of Griffiths Valuation. Possibility for Daniel's father or sibling or other relative, perhaps.

Hi scotmum,

There is a notation by Rose - mortici   ??? which I assume means she had died and then a further note in the last column re the baptism 'sub conditione .....' I can't read the rest.
