Edward Driscoll b1842?
« on: Tuesday 08 August 17 21:33 BST (UK) »
Edward Driscoll I think was born 1842 somewhere in Ireland?
He died 1903 in Orpington Kent. He was married to a Mary. But I have a Mary Haggarty and a Mary Ragan?? Any help would be appreciated please. I have his children and their children but nothing on Edwards parents!!

There is a marriage of Edward Driscoll to Mary Ragan or Emma Davis, Mar qtr 1866 Dartford.

If this is your Edward then either he had more than one wife or else Mary had been married before to a Mr Ragan.

I see that daughter Ellen's birth was registered Mar qtr 1870 Wandsworth with mmn Hagerthy.

Have you investigated the 1866 marriage to see whether the details fit and indeed which woman Edward Driscoll married and whether he fits what is known of your Edward?

There is also a marriage in Shoreditch, 19 Jun 1865, of a Timothy Driscoll (22) boot & shoe maker, son of Cornelius Driscoll, to a Mary Ann Hagerthy, 19, daughter of James Hagerthy.  Other than the name Timothy, these details look very similar to your couple.  Perhaps worth looking into, if only to eliminate.
