Galvin/Ryan families

[roxy51]

Hello
Looking for information on Mary Ann Galvin born on 26 Apr 1859 to Michael Denis Galvin and Margaret Innes in Yass. Marry Ann died on 11 May 1933 in Moss Vale NSW.

Married Patrick Ryan in 1887 in Yass.  He was born in Yass in1852 to Martin Ryan and Ellen O'Neil.  He died on 1 April 1918 in Moss Vale and is buried in the Yass Cemetery. I believe he was the postmaster at Moss Vale.

My particular relative was Mary Ann Galvin junior born 19 September 1879 at Derringallen Creek NSW.  Her mother was Mary Ann Galvin senior.  No father was registered. She often went by the name of Ryan so my question is was Patrick Ryan her father or her stepfather?  Other children were born to Patrick Ryan and Mary Ann - Michael 1887, Percy J born 1890, Morgan 1891, Ruby 1896.

Any information would be grearly appreciated.

Hi
On the death certificate for Mary Ann Senior, what is written in regard to children of the deceased?
Sue

"...She often went by the name of Ryan "

Can you be specific, with instances of this. When / where...what context?

Is Mary Ann herself using both names?

Are other people using both names for her?

Married Patrick Ryan in 1887 in Yass.  He was born in Yass in1852 to Martin Ryan and Ellen O'Neil.  He died on 1 April 1918 in Moss Vale and is buried in the Yass Cemetery. I believe he was the postmaster at Moss Vale.

I think some of the information you have posted needs to be rechecked before going any further.

Neither Patrick's or Mary Ann snr's death notices mention a daughter by the name of Mary Ann.
Are you sure you have the right family for your Mary Ann Galvin junior born 19 September 1879 at Derringallen Creek NSW.?  I dont think it is the right family
