More back burner - might have a fire soon  ;)

The informant on Mary's birth was Annie Slevin, Ardnagesson, Donegal.
Will of Annie Slevin, Ardnagesson http://www.willcalendars.nationalarchives.ie/reels/cwa/005014919/005014919_00739.pdf

1901

There is a daughter Susan. I wonder if this is Annie Slevin O'Donnell's family  :-\

One step at a time Oranges  8)

The birth cert will be available immediately you pay for your credits and search on Scotlands People.

Just for searching

Details to date indicate that Agnes O'DONNELL was born c1887/9
Possibly on December 19th
and in Scotland

If the 1901 census return is correct she was shown as 16 (bc1885)
If there were discrepancies around her birth her first marriage could be as early as 1901 as a minor,
however more reasonably from 1905 (actual age 18 from assumed civil records found)

Marraige most likely between 1904 and 1911 as not obvious on census as Agnes O'DONNELL
Kearney & Bourke/ Johns & Fox/ Mannion & Finan/ Donohoe & Curley
Byrne [Carthy], Keeffe/ Germaine, Butler/ McDermott, Giblin/ Lally, Dolan
Toole, Doran; Dowling, Grogan/ Reilly, Burke; Warren, Kidd [Lawless]/ Smith, Scally; Mangan, Rodgers/ Fahy, Calday; Staunton, Miller
Further generations:
Brophy Coleman Eathorn(e) Fahy Fitzpatrick Geraghty Haverty Keane Keogh Nowlan Rowe Walder

See reply #51 for searches I made (which were negative) on National Records of Scotland for divorce proceedings 1906 - 1915; these I presume are not complete. I also looked on findmypast at Scottish newspaper reports but nothing there either.

Thread is getting quite long for an old 'un like me to remember all that's been found  ::)
