More of the West/Condon family

[Bunnygirl]

No not any baptisms.
Have been looking at the parents & siblings of James McGrath Catherine's 2nd husband, Christain names repeated in his children Ellen & Anthony. But not really found anything of any interest apart from Michael McGrath & son Maurice in 1891 lived at The Oratory Little College Street Chelsea which is the address given on marriage cert for Catherine Condon & Henry West in 1878

Well death certs have come back and both are James & Catherine McGrath's children both  died in infancy.
Jane McGrath died 19 May 1893 age 4mths Whooping Cough mother registered death abode 1 Eden Place, Chelsea.
Margaret McGrath died 14 May 1893 Pneumonia & convulsions mother registered death of 1 Eden Place, Chelsea . Margaret's cert says female then son of James McGrath !!
Well  have now found 2 more of the 12 children.
The couple must have had another daughter they called Maragret as she registers the death of her mother in 1934.


Thank you heywood for all your help and suggestions.
Will keep plodding on

I've found Kate on electoral registers at 1 Norcott Road 1929-31. Other people living in the house - looks like two other families each time, so probably a shared/divided up house of some sort. I can;t see any obvoius connection between Kate and the other rsidents

It should have said widow of (James) McGrath, plus his occupation.
The informant seems to have been under the impression that Kate was a spinster?
