Hello again!  : - )

RE:
I feel I must just add a little note of caution here
Without purchasing the James FLAHERTY death certificate, you cannot be quite certain it is the right man.
And, again, without the certificate of the Margaret FLAHERTY in Melbourne, you cannot be sure of her identity either.


I understand and in time we shall purchase the death certificates for both persons above. At times it becomes a little expensive, however, we indeed will as to confirm we have all correct and in order.  : - )

RE:
Who was the informant on the certificate of William McKenna?

The informant was his Daughter E McKenna = [Emma / Amy McKenna]

RE:
Have you been in contact with Melbourne General Cemetery? I think you may find a lot from their burial records as it would have been the logical Cemetery for a family at Carlton and the "patriarch" is interred there.

I emailed Melbourne General Cemetery just this moment to attain location details etc for William & Margaret McKenna. Thanks for prompting me to do so.

Once again thank you kindly Sue.

Best wishes, Denise.

Hi Sue,
I will email you the death certificate for William MCKENNA for you to view the childrens names listed.

We have the death details for his wife Margaret McKenna nee REA / RAY / RAE, however we have not purchased her death certificate at this stage.

William MCKENNA
d: 06.01.1883 Emerald Hill Vic
reg: 1268
age: 57
Buried Melbourne General Cemetery
Parents Unknown

Margaret REA / RAY / RAE
d: 1902
reg: 10812
age: 70
Buried Melbourne General Cemetery 02.08.1902
father: David Rae
mother: Mary Tynan

Still trying to locate the marriage certificate / date of William & Margaret McKenna nee REA / RAY / RAE marriage. We believe it may have been in Ireland. Not known if he or she were previously married.

RE: Don't know who Miss McKenna is. Listed as Adult. Miss McKenna on the passenger list we believe to be Margaret Ann. I was told when a female child turns 12 years old they were classed as Miss [adult] back then!?

Thank you for FLAHERTY James death details. So he did die in WA! Will now be able to make a note of that.

Thanks you also for Electoral Roll details of Margaret Ann Kenney. That is just great!  : - ) Not having her death certificate at this stage we too are not sure if she and John KENNEY had children.

Many thanks Sue for all your help in helping me with my queries.  : - ) Best wishes Denise.

RE:
Dath of ADA

O'FLAHERTY Ada
Father Mckenna Wm
Mother Margt Ann  RAY
Death Place S MELB
Age 75
Year 1943
Reg Number 11985

She was on the Electoral Roll from 1903 to 1943 in South Melbourne, but I do not see James with her.  There were five children to the marriage from 1891 to 1897. I can’t spot James after that.

Sue

Thank you Sue for locating Ada's death, the Electoral Roll dates and number of children to the marriage. I found an article in TROVE of which states a James O'Flaherty, formerly of Melbourne, plus Ada O'Flaherty name appears also. May or may not be relevant. Kind regards, Denise.
