If you had mentioned that her father was a Musical Operatitionor  it would have made it easier to find!!

The only reason I finally found them was that I found births for 2 brothers (1908 and 1911) then started searching for John O'Connor age 3.

Well, I did say it was a really bad transcription  ::)
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

She should have been easy to find despite the common surname, her dad was distinctive with a given name like Sinnott Valentine and he was a doctor. We are at the mercy of the transcriptions.

 I must remember to look for siblings in future, I was completely at a loss to find her. As she was only of interest to me because she married my relation I didn't think to look for siblings.

Never would have found her without you, I have had wonderful help on here. Big thanks aghadowey for this one and everyone who has helped me previously.

Thanks again, I am delighted to have her.
