Birthplace of Mary Anne Callaghan.
« on: Monday 24 July 17 15:46 BST (UK) »
Can anyone provide me with the birthplace details of Mary Anne Callaghan, born around 1834? I cannot find her on any sites I have tried. She married Leslie Caskey 22 Nov 1860 at Scriggan Presbyterian Church, Dungiven, Newtown Limavady, County Londonderry. She is listed as deceased in 1903. On the 1901 & 1911 census Leslie in shown as married to a Margaret, so she must have died at least before the 1901 date. The last of her children, Thomas, was born in 1878. So she was still around then. Any help would be most welcome. Thanks, Graham.

He married Margaret Douglas in Nov 1899

That doesn't narrow down Mary Anne's death by much but better than nothing.

Pity the mother's surname isn't there but looks fairly good, hopefully someone who know the records for the area better will be able to confirm if it's the correct family.

Thanks again Sinann, On Mary Anne`s death cert she is down as 50 years old in 1898. If this is correct it means she was born around 1848 & not 1834 as I thought. As I have her marrying in 1860 this would make her around 12 at the time. Surely that couldn`t be right. Could you possibly confirm the date of her wedding?  Many thanks, Graham.

Death ages are often incorrect but fourteen years is a good bit for a husband to get it wrong by, I wonder does she have a headstone.
Do you have his birth?
