It looks like Patrick Murray and Mary Ann Wilkinson (alternative surname Doyle) didn`t marry until 1872 so they won`t be on the 1871 census together.

Hi,
Have i got this right Mary's birth surname was Wilkinson she had an illegitimate daughter Maria Wilkinson, then she married John Doyle, then later mary married Patrick Murray which meant that her daughter Maria Wilkinson took the name Murray? Have i got this right or have i got it completly wrong??
Thanks for you help :)

The GRO index for the marriage shows that when she married Patrick she was Mary Ann Wilkinson, so she was more than likely born Doyle and married a Wilkinson. Daughter Maria Wilkinson being from that marriage.
