Hi China, interesting read! If George did live on Osbourne Street, I'm confident he didn't partake of some of the more Bohemian temptations on offer, being a good God fearing, Irish Catholic  ;) :)

Thanks.
Paul.

Hi Aghadowey, and thank you. This is definitely George's older sister Mary (Ann) Liddy.
It's so sad that that she died young and so soon after marrying.You state that she died from complications at childbirth.This is how her own mother also died. My wife is descended from her (half) sister. You can see her recorded as Nellie aged 8 in the 1901 census of Ireland and as Ellen aged 18 in 1911.She also died from complications at childbirth in September 1921 aged 28,same year as Mary.Mercifully her son, my wife's father, survived.
I can only hope that Mary found happiness in the short time she was married, and while she was pregnant with her son.

Thanks again.
Paul.

If you click on the link for Mary Ryan's death that I posted earlier you have the option of viewing the death certificate (after signing in).
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Aghadowey, do you know if I sign in to Familysearch, will I be tortured with e-mails from them regarding matters other than genealogy research?

Hi.
I want to thank all who posted to this thread.With your help (and without it I would have made very little progress) I have traced both George Liddy and his sister Mary (Liddy) Ryan. As someone said to me, it's a great result in genealogy terms, although very sad that Mary died so young in childbirth. Isn't that the truth?

Thanks.
Paul.

Hi Paul,

You're very welcome. :) It is bittersweet isn't it...happy that Mary was found, but sad at the
same time.

Cheers,
DB
