Margaret Cahalin marriage to John Baxter
« on: Thursday 22 September 11 03:24 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out the names of the parents of Margaret Cahalin and John Baxter.  I believe that they were married in Bradford (Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1891, Registration District: Bradford, Inferred County: Yorkshire West Riding, Volume Number: 9B, Page Number 388).

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you from New Zealand.

Hi, well the mother of Margaret is a Bridget b Ireland

1891 Census

Bridget Cahalin Widow 47 b Ireland
Margaret 20 b Bradford
Along with other Boarders is:-
Grace A Baxter 15 b Bradford
Residing at 65, Longlands Street, Bradford
RG12/3629/78/2
1881 Census

James Baxter 38 b Skipton Craven Yorks
Mary 35 b Ireland
JOHN 7 b Bradford
Grace A 5 b Bradford
Elizabeth 3 b Bradford
Mary 1 b Bradford
Residing at 125, Longlands Street, Bradford
Census Ref RG11/4453/81/1

Margaret/Bridget are on RG11/4454/18/29 for the 1881, Bridget still a Widow
And in 1871 RG10/4466/103/10 Bridget/Margaret are transcribed as "Nieces Wife/Daughter?"

Sorry could not post a full household, but work is getting in the way, I am certain someone will follow up anything that I have produced or missed!
I must point out however that the Marriage Certificate is a must, so that you can confirm the possible census returns I have shown.

The surname Cahalan appears to originate in Ireland - am wondering if it originally was Callaghan ... ?  Just a thought!
