Ahh I see, so Bridget's maiden name was Thomas, then she married Barrett, and then Corcoran?
Thankyou theres bundles here!
Matt :)

No, I think we're slightly confused here! ;D Bridget married Patrick Corcoran. Her parents were Martin Barrett and presumably Margaret Thomas. Patrick and Bridget Thomas who appear on the 1861 census are then likely to be Margaret's parents.

Now I can see it!! ;D
Quite a bit back here then if thats the case, it does look pretty likely your suggestion is correct. Thankyou once again for all the work youve done *thumbs up* :D
Matt :)

I apologise again, I slipped up in my last posting. Bridget's parents were Martin Barrett and Bridget Thomas, not, of course, Margaret. :-[
