Thank you for clarifying Mary's maiden name Yvonne. I can't see a marriage though, between Patrick and Mary Murphy (that doesn't mean to say it's not there of course!)
Places of interest;
Lancashire, West Yorkshire, Southern Ireland, Scotland.

Sorry if I wasn't very clear, this has pickled my brain today, and the search was prompted by someone telling me my tree was wrong, so I've been on the back foot all day!  I have made some progress though, found the baptism record for John https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/2180/images/engl-56170_282-ant-1-4_m_00058?pId=760364&backurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ancestry.com%2Ffamily-tree%2Fperson%2Ftree%2F114805715%2Fperson%2F332207582755%2Ffacts

 Also found another child, Jane and most interesting in this record is the god mother Mary Mcgrath who shows up several times as a lodger on the census records so I know I'm on the right track .

Yvonne -- I think the link you gave was for James baptism, rather than John's  - and on that baptism - the middle name looks like Thomas! (What do you think?)

The middle name is omitted on the GRO index - where the surname is given as McCartney.

(It would be boring if it went smoothly!!)

It was James, you are quite correct  ;D  I have since found John's though, https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/2180/images/engl-56170_282-ant-1-5_m_00022?treeid=&personid=&hintid=&usePUB=true&usePUBJs=true&_ga=2.26076856.442466494.1594634687-589154697.1594634687&pId=771529&backurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ancestry.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fsse.dll%3Fdbid%3D2180%26h%3D771529%26indiv%3Dtry%26o_vc%3DRecord%3AOtherRecord%26rhSource%3D9841

 I dearly wish they would decide on a name and then stick with it, I've had Carty, McCarty, McCarthy, and Rielly Riely Reilly and Reily today, but still no clue where Wearthy comes in!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I know, thank you. I just wanted to find the actual record myself so I could add it to my tree.  The other children are Susan Reily's.  Its a direct descendant of these 3 girls who contacted me to tell me I was mis-spelling their surnames names in my tree, Galligan instead of Gallaghan:-)

I have ordered Catherine's birth cert as she was born on the Wirral which is an interesting twist in my 3 x Great Grandfather's story. I wasn't aware that he had lived anywhere other than Liverpool once he left Ireland.

The lady who contacted me also has Susan born on the Wirral, Birkenhead but Mary born in Prescott/Ormskirk which seems to be backed up by this travel document to Australia, which is where they all settled but I'm curious as to why Mary's birth happened in an area so far unrelated to  James Gallaghan's life story as I know it so far.

Let's see what Catherine's Cert says first before I spend any more money :-)

The youngest child, Rose on the 1861 census, is my 2xGreat Grandmother, I have everything on her.

Is it Preston Lancs rather than Prestcott for Mary's birth?

I have seen Prescott, Preston and Ormskirk on various tree/records so keeping an open mind.

Ok, interesting development!

Can anyone read which town Bally.....? the  Grandfather of the 3 girls was from.  I think it's in Cavan, Ireland.  The ship record is Ennis, County Clare though, I'm confused as this isn't a Harbour town???
