Looks like Mary and Daniel died very close together; their deaths are registered on the same page, both having Mary Fitzgerald as informant:

Daughter Mary (1875):

Likely Thomas under "McDonald" (1875):

Son Michael (1887):

My theory:

Birth of a Timothy O'Donnell in 1869 with father Daniel and the same abode as with Thomas:

Mother is an Eliza Walsh.

Death of an Eliza O'Donnell in 1872:

Marriage between Daniel and Eliza would have taken place before civil registration, I imagine, as a son was registered in 1865.

This may or may not be of interest. Marriage of William Harris, Widower,aged 27 to Cecilia Jane Thomsett, 22, daughter of Gilham Thomsett, labourer at St Andrew's on 7/11/1908. He was the son of William Harris, tailor, deceased. William was a Tailor, later a Farmer of 14, Peter Street and they had a son, also William, baptised at St Andrew'a on 31/10/1911.

I referenced that in Reply #2, but when you say "William was a Tailor, later a Farmer of 14 Peter Street" are you referring to "William Sr." or William Jr.? Where did you find this information? I can see William Jr. residing at 14 Peter Street in 1911, but he is a market gardener.

Sorry if I'm missing something.

Hi Soph,

I’ve sent you a PM and I hope you see it because I have found the mother of the people in the original post and even have a photograph of her.

If you would like to, you could start a new post looking into her background using the information I have provided, as she died in 2017. It might be a good idea to post it on the Northern Ireland board, as that is where she was from.

I don't know if this is true - and please do give an opinion, anyone, if you have more expert knowledge on this - but I think it is legal to order a copy of someone else's birth certificate?

An article on it here:
https://support.vitalcertificates.co.uk/article/55-can-i-order-someone-elses-birth-certificate

It says "if the birth took place over 50 years ago, much less information is required in order to make the request." I wonder if your friend, using the information you already have, could order a copy of their birth certificate?

I wouldn't usually suggest it, but seeing as your friend is researching her own family (presumably a close relation?) I don't see a big problem with it.

I am sorry how do I do that?

Just on the top right hand side of your post; it is a little red button with a pencil icon in it.

Hi,

I'm afraid RootsChat has a strict "no living people" policy. Please remove their names from your post using the 'modify' button.

There is a thread on the subject here:

Charlotte in 1881?:

With Samuel Harris, tailor, who is perhaps the father of William.

Sad article about Charlotte in The Surrey Comet, and General Advertiser, 01 June 1872. Cannot post it all as it is too long. She was acquitted at trial.
