Death of Martin Quane?
« on: Sunday 26 July 20 16:37 BST (UK) »
My 2x Great grandad is Martin Quain/Quane he married Johanna McMahon 1884 in Limerick.
I found 2 census that i believe to have Johanna in both stating she is a widow although i have doubts on the 1901 because of the different address and im not sure they had a daughter called Mary i only found Kate and Johanna.

1901

1911

No joy with Martin's death or anything else for that matter. I can only see the marriage and the two girls births.
I do think it's the correct family in 1901 despite the change of address.

Only other thing I could find was Johanna in the 1912 trade directory

Thats all i have as well, its like they all just disappeared, the 1911 census says she had 4 children 3 living so it must have been one of the girls that died between 1901 and 1911.

I have a date of birth for John as 9/08/1889 but i have no idea where i got that from.
So i have no marriage or death for those 3 kids.

Michael Thomas Quain is my great grandfather, i couldnt find a birth for him but a relative had a copy of his baptism certificate stating his birth as 30/09/1887

Could 16 year old Mary Quain in the 1901 census return for house 3 in Barrack Lane and Kate Quain registered as born on 12 February 1885 be one and the same person?

I only ask because a Mary Quane was baptised on 14 February 1885 in St. Munchin's RC parish for parents Martin Quane and John (sic) McMahon.  I can see baptisms in the same parish for the couple's other children - Johanna in 1886, Michael in 1887 and John in 1889 - but no baptism for a Kate/Catherine.

I assumed they were the same person or that i had the wrong census, Kate was born 12th feb 1885 so perhaps her name was changed in those 2 days.
