A Rosanna Walthew married James Holligan in 1894 in West Derby. Tried checking it out on 1901 census. There is a James Holligan with a wife Rose A. of the correct age in West Derby. Having some problems with the website, so can't see the original image at the moment. The grown up children could be from James's first marriage.
Perhaps she wasn't formally married to James Moran, hence the use of her surname from first marriage.
Also, have you checked Irish censuses?

Nice find Oreo ;D ;D ;D
The "childrens" names and ages in the 1901 cenus all match with the ones called Moran in the 1891 census too.

P.S. glad it is not just me struggling with the website tonight.

Rose Ann Walthew nee Gabriel first husband dies in 1869 approx but by 1881 & 1891 census is recorded as M married but no record can be found for her to a James Moran !!!!
By 1894 after James Moran dies Rose marries again to a James Holligan but she give name as Walthew
Would people of that time lied to enumerator ????

Yes, they frequently altered the truth to suit their circumstances.
Strange that there doesn`t seem to be a death recorded for her husband. What was his occupation on the marriage certificate?

Just a thought. The Walthew family were often Catholics. It may be you need to look in RC records

Can I ask why you think Rose Ann Gabriel was born in Ireland ?
Quote. - Rose Ann Gabriel born approx 1848 Ireland father Samuel Gabriel mother Rose Ann
...this looks like a possible for her parents marriage in Liverpool in 1835
Marriage: 7 Dec 1835 St Nicholas, Liverpool, Lancashire, England
Samuel Gabriel - Cordwainer, Liverpool
Rosana Baylin - Widow,
do you think these are Rose Ann Gabriel parents ??
