Isabella McHENRY nee ALGEO

[genid]

Isabella ALGEO married in Sydney to Daniel J. McHENRY in 1861. He died 1909, born Limerick, Ireland.
She was born in Co Donegal in 1840 to William Algeo and Catherine Pinkerton.
Emigrated in 1861 - but I cannot find any record of this.
Died on 20 Jan 1904 at 16 Busby Parade, Waverley and buried in the RC section of Waverley Gyd - I do not have any details from the gravestone.
On her death cert - a niece - looks like - N. Bright - the writing is very bad also living at the same address is the informant -- I have no idea who she might be - help !
Is there a census or other data which might find out who this niece is. ?
I cannot find any other Algeo's in NSW who are related to Isabella.
Many Thanks anyone who can help.
David in Co Antrim Ireland.

Unusual?
On the marriage register here it gives his name as Daniel Mc/MacKene

On the DC it gives McHenry.

Do you have any other documentation that has his actual correct Surname. Normally the marriage register is the most correct as it is from the Horses mouth so to speak. Of course it could have been mistranscribed. It has happened.

No other marriages of ALGEO, however there is a Mary Algee but not to a BRIGHT. Nor is there any McHenry/Mackene to Bright

Maybe you post a pic of the cert and see if we can make anything of that?

Here is the wedding announcement Isabella Algeo to Daniel McKenery

There is a public tree on ancestry with some details of siblings - is this your tree?
cheers,

[rosball]

The tree on ancestry is well-sourced and has the following siblings for Daniel
   Gerald McEniry/McHenry 1809 - 1860
   Ellen McEniry/McHenry 1816-1894
and that Ellen married Richard Maloney and had a daughter Deborah Maloney 1846-1911

No mention of a Bright I'm afraid

cheers,
