Title: John Carr & Susannah Senior; Queens County (Laois)
Post by: Nigel B on Monday 08 July 13 13:02 BST (UK)
I am trying to find the marriage of John Carr & Susannah Senior , I think in Queens County, in Ireland and information on their deaths also.

I know they had at least three children Richard, Ellen(3rd great Grandmother) and Katherine Margaret Carr born between 1800 -1804, so probably married late 1790's

I have found plenty of information on Katherine Margaret Carr due to her second marriage to John Lysaght Penneyfather (9th Dec 1830). Despite this I can't find much on her parents, I know both parents died relatively young, as the daughter were sent to live with an uncle (Morton) from their maternal side.

Any help or guidance would be very helpfull, thanks

Nigel

Did she use her middle name to marry John Lysaght Penneyfather?  Familysearch site has bride as Margaret Bartley?

Thanks for reply, yes Bartley was her first husbands surname.

Ellen (her sister) and their parents are proving more difficult, I know Ellen married her cousin William Carr but can't find their marriage.

Katherine Margaret married in London - were the rest of the family here too or still in Ireland?

They were all in London at 1830 as Ellen and Richard her sister and brother were witness to Margaret's marriage.

Thank you for the link, have found the marriage of John Carr & Susannah Senior 8th Aug 1791.

Three of the children I have found were born between 1800-1804 so could be others born in 1790's.

Be good to find John & Susannah's deaths, they both died young the daughters went to live with their uncle think around 1815 ? Richard Carr the son was sent to London and entered a finance house, but can't anything
