Title: Can't find in 1911
Post by: atmartinas on Tuesday 19 June 18 16:43 BST (UK)
A first cousin of my Grandads Matthew Murphy married an Anastasia Mary O'Connor in Dublin in 1924 the Celebrant was another cousin Fr Peter Roche. They were all from Wexford.

I have been trying to locate his wife on 1911 Census, she was known as Mary. I believe this is possibly her birth, my Aunt had the year 1904 recorded for her. https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1904/01813/1710109.pdf

I can't locate her in 1911, help please.
Thanks

I think it's this one- one of the worst transcriptions I've seen in a long while!

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  ::)

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.
