I am trying to find out information on what happened to two reletives of my. First my x3 great grandaunt, Margaret (Maggie) Brown. She was born in Killaughey, Millisle to Hugh Brown and Agnes Wallace in 1872 but the last record I can find for her is in the 1911 Irish Census for Killaghey which says she is and single and was living with her family: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Down/Donaghadee_Rural/Killaghy/264397/
I can't find a record of her after this, if she married or remained single or when and where she died
I am also looking for a 2nd cousin x3 removed, Proctor Taylor. The only record I have is a 1911 Census record for Ballywilliam that says he is 3: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Down/Donaghadee_Rural/Ballywilliam/264294/ I cannot find a birth record for a Proctor Taylor or any other record of him besides this Census record. Can anyone help?

Have a look at the original household return. It is 'Victor', not 'Proctor'.

Thanks, should have done that. Makes sense, I know about Victor Taylor and what happened to him so that clears that up.

Thnaks but I know about those and have searched those and haven't found anything so far. I did search PRONI Will Calenders and came across this, it may be her if she never married. I don't know yet:
"Brown Margaret of 53 High Street Donaghadee county Down spinster died 1 December 1936 Probate Belfast 18 March to Rose Wilson married woman. Effects £30."

Searching for that Margret Brown's death on GRONI would have given you this information-
D/1936/198/1024/16/119 Margaret Brown 1st December 1936 84 Female Newtownards(pre-1973 Q4)
Born c1852 so about 20 years too old.

Thanks, I just checked that just before you replied so probably not her. Here is Margaret Brown's birth record: https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1872/03227/2183177.pdf
