Elizabeth O'Brien (Cissie)
« on: Monday 24 April 17 13:46 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I'm trying to find any marriage or death records for my grandmothers sister Elizabeth O'Brien known as Cissie, I have her on the 1911 census residing in Westport, aged 7, but cannot find any other trace of her.  Any help would be appreciated.  ;)

Is this her

What was her father's name and was he still alive?
His information is need to confirm any marriage record found.
This would be the place to have a look

Although she may be too young to appear in those records and if she moved it would be difficult to know where to look.

IF it is.. born Philadelphia.

I can see a marriage for brother Daniel. Is your grandmother Marie in the census? Did she move away? I wondered if the girls left in adulthood.

Thank you everyone for your replies.

 I have all the information on the rest of the family, she returned with her mother Lizzie and twin brother Daniel from South Dakota as her father was killed in an accident in the homesteak gold mine.  Lizzie remarried a Lambert and moved to Scotland.  Daniel and Cissie stayed in Westport, or at least I thought she stayed in Westport, now I'm not so sure.  I have tried the civil records for a marriage but no luck.

I appreciate everyone's help   :)
