Margaret Hanna 1852

[RodEast]

Can anyone help with the death of Margaret Hanna.  She was born in Downpatrick in Northern Ireland and married Robert Edge on 4th October 1869 in Liverpool.  They had 10 children the last one being born in 1890.  I have Margaret with Robert on the 1891 census in Everton nut that is when the trail ends.  Robert is on the 1901 census and the 1911 census in Everton both of which state that he is married.  Robert died in 1914 the death registered in West Derby.  Any help much appreciated

Margaret was 40 in 1891, so born about 1851; census states born England but 1881 states 1852 Ireland.

No, that’s not her. It is an infant death.

1891
Margaret 40 Spouse Robt Edge born 1852
Children Edmund 20, Rbt 15, Stanley 12, Margaret 9, Mary 8, Martha 4, Elizabeth 2,
Annie Edge born 1890

I note Robert and some of the above 1901/1911 census on family search.

Have you seen the original record or just the transcript?

No it does not but Robert is noted as married, as per original post.

‘Robert died in 1914 the death registered in West Derby.’

How is Robert described on the death certificate? Is he a widower or still married?

I am sure you have these details - no mention of Margaret
There is a burial in West Derby Cemetery May 17th 1914

I have revisited Robert's marriage in 1869 and found that Margaret's father is William Hanna Boiler Maker.  Checking the 1861 census William, his wife Mary and their children Margaret, William, Mary E and Samuel, all born in Ireland, were resident at 33, Steel Street, Liverpool, Lancashire, England. William is given as a Boiler Maker. I am not sure how much further forward it takes me but at least in confirms that she was born in Ireland.
