Hi,
Can anyone help
Looking for
Elizabeth Mackvoy/Mackavoy b. 1841-1844 Woolwich, Kent
I am aware of an Edward Mackavoy and family in Woolwich b 1801 but he has an Elizabeth b 1829 so it's not her. I cannot seem to trace another family of this name in Woolwich - I was hoping someone might take a look for me. She married Edward Kirkham in 1863.
Many Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark
Do you have the marriage certificate? Was the father's name on same?

Not alot of help, but I found Edward & family in 1841 - name written as MacKaooy - so presumably many variations!

Thanks for this - have just ordered marriage certificate for Elizabeth - down as Mackavoy on BMD
Regards, Mark

hi Mark,
Did you managae to get that marriage certificate? I am interested to see who your Elizabeth is from as I am also from the Mackavoys in Woolwich. I am from the 1794 Elizabeth Mackavoy who married Robert Mercer.
Would be happy to share any information I have if we are related in some distant way!!
All the best

Hi,
Sorry only just picked up your message - yes i found marriage certificate - my Elizabeth was daughter of Patrick McAvoy a soldier in Chatham garrison - she married Edward Kirkham - so no relation I'm afraid. She had two lder sisters both born in Ithika, Greece.
Regards, Mark
