Title: Search for any information on Margaret Lawson (nee Moore)
Post by: Striker69 on Wednesday 29 February 12 19:03 GMT (UK)
Hi All

Looking for any information on Margaret Lawson (nee Moore) who was married to my grandfather, Patrick and I believed was a member of Cumann na mBan in the 1920s. They separated during the Civil War and she died in 1945.

All help appreciated...

This seems to be Patrick in 1911 (based on your other posts for his parents’ names)

and in 1901

His marriage to Margaret seem to be in 1915

If you order this record it should state Margaret’s then address, occupation and Father’s name which will help find out more

This is a possibility for Margaret based on the address of 15.4 in Gloucester Place, Lower (North Dock, Dublin) very close to Patrick

but there are many Margaret Moore's listed

Thanks for the information, especially the details on a possible marriage certificate.

This is a link to what may be Margaret’s death record aged 57 in 1945

hope this helps a little

There is only one Margaret Lawson listed in the 1939 register or electors for Dublin which if her could place her at that time and up to her death (if you search the subsequent years) She is living with a Patrick Lawson
