John and Kate were married in St Paul's RC Belfast.
When married she may have been pregnant, maybe not. But dying in Sept 1909 means that Mary and Lizzie ages must have been between 1 and 8 years old when Kate died.
John must have died between Feb 1901 and Sept 1909as Kate is registered as a widow on her death cert.
When Kate's 1st husband died, Con, my great Granda, she received compensation of £350 in Dec of 1897. That was a tidy sum of money then. She met John McGowan and the marriage registration doc says she was a "Lady".
Things must have gone badly wrong for her to die in the workhouse.
