Hi I am wondering if Ann and John Moran were the parents of Hannah Belle Moran (born 1908) married in 1930 to Edwin Taylor (born 1904).

There are a lot of female Morans born around 1890 and not sure which is my ancestor.
Hannah Belle is my great grandmother.

Not having much luck finding parents of family pre 1912, I have found out why. Just seeing how much I can find out without joining Ancestry or similar. Wondering if its around late 1800s that the Morans emigrated to Blackburn, Lancashire from Ireland.

Thanks in advance!

they have a daughter baptised Annabella born 1st March 1908 baptised 25th March 1908, abode 20 A Heys Lane, father is a plasterer mother Jane Elizabeth , I didn't find a birth for Annabella so wondered if perhaps this is your Hannah Belle ,
This birth date is the same as Hannah B Taylor wife of Edwin ,living Park Road Darwen in 1939, daughter Margaret birth date 30 th March 1937, married name added as Bunn, Free BMD Margaret Taylor mother Moran, Darwen June 1937,

perhaps order her birth certificate the scans are very reasonable from the GRO ,

Welcome to Rootschat, RDredd.
Family Search can be useful. You have to register/sign in but it is free.

Here is Edward in 1901. You can see his mother is Annabella, so your Hannah Belle was named after her grandmother.
