Where have you looked for a marriage? just England? with those names Ireland or Scotland might be possibilities. If you'd like help with this you need to tell us exactly what you already know or have tried.

The query may be centred (at least in part) in Ireland, where a Catherine Tracey and a William O'Toole appear on the same page of marriages in Dublin South, Jun qtr 1902.

I believe marriage to be in dublin between catherine quinn,and ? Treacy between 1898_1900 as i have found catherines second marriage in 1902 where she is widow and looking at 1911 census her age is 35 so she was born 1880/1881 if this is correct and her second husband is 45.ive checked lds for first marriage and looked up treacy deaths but its hard when dont no first name im wondering if he died at war and maybe not buried in ireland as went through deaths in old irish papers looking for tracey death with widow catherine also checked 1901 dublin census for catherine tracey/treacy but age doesnt match and not a widow ive looked through church records of ireland using catherines father john quinn (labourer)as additional search as found this on second marriage but nothing so far

So it's Ireland we're looking at, is it, for all these events? Is that where Catherine and William were in 1911? Where was Catherine born?

We are all keen to help but we do need a clear starting point in terms of which country your people were in, on the basis of the facts you already know.

Are you able to give us a link to the Irish 1911 online census for the O' Toole couple so that we can see all the details? I am struggling to find them.

Is this Catherine & second husband in 1911 census? (you said "looking at 1911 census her age is 35 so she was born 1880/1881 if this is correct" but 35 years before 1911 is c1876 NOT c1880)

Looks promising.

So if that's her she was born in County Dublin but not the City of Dublin (which was the birthplace of everyone else in the family)

Possibility?

Catherine Treacy age 21 with husband Andrew and son John (age 2)-
www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Dublin/Ushers_Quay/Thomas_Court/1303215

Added- bride probably a Catherine Kane who married 1898

Same family in 1911-

This is confusing.

In your post on a previous thread reproduced at reply #3 on this thread, you said that Catherine was 30 in 1911. You later said (reply #7 on this thread) that she was 35 in 1911.

Is this the 1911 census you're referring to (found by aghadowey)?

www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Dublin/Mansion_House/Vance_s_Buildings/75091/

If so she is 30 rather than 35 in spring 1911, so born 1880-1881. It looks likely to be the right census as it matches the address you've given from the 2nd marriage record. If it is right it gives Catherine's birthplace as County Dublin.

I think you need to sit down and look at all the information and check the dates to get the facts straight.

The 1902 marriage to William O'Toole gives Catherine Quinn's address as 3 Vances Buidlings Dublin and we've found William O'Toole and wife Catherine married 9 years at the same address.
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000193699/
Therefore, it seems pretty clear that this is the right Catherine and her details show her as age 30 NOT 35 and born Co, Dublin NOT Dublin City. This is not to say those details are correct but they are what is on the census form.

Yes i see what you mean i got mixed up sorry so later i will look for cat quinn birth co dub and in relation to her first marriage can anyone tell me what was legal age to marry 16,17, or 18? So i can narrow it down.on her second marriage under age it says full. Il keep at it and il post what i dont understand.thanks so much guys.

"Full age" is 21 years but marriages could take place younger.

FamilySearch has some, not all, extracted Irish births 1864-c1881 which probably covers the period of her birth- what's her father's name (and occupation) from 1902 marriage?
Title: Re: need help please - QUINN MCCLEAN
Post by: nikkita5680 on Monday 06 January 14 23:24 GMT (UK)
fathers name is john quinn and occupation is labourer.
Title: Re: need help please - QUINN MCCLEAN
Post by: aghadowey on Monday 06 January 14 23:33 GMT (UK)
Think this is the one you found earlier?
Birth: Catherine Bridget Quinn born 25 Mar.1880 Portobella Place Dublin, parents- John Quinn & Kate Quinn Behan

All extracted births for 'Catherine Quinn' with father 'John Quinn' in County Dublin for 1870-1879 seem to also be in Dublin City but database is not complete .

Post by: nikkita5680 on Monday 06 January 14 23:48 GMT (UK)
yes thats the one i have i think il try looking for her death and see if i can find her age and see if it matches census then ill know if it is correct year of birth.thanks

Ages in records can be quite fickle- since age at death is given by an informant it may nt be accurate either. It's not at all uncommon to find that a person supposedly aged more or less than than 10 years between 1901 census and 1911 census.

Birth: Catherine Bridget Quinn born 25 Mar.1880 Portobella Place Dublin, parents- John Quinn & Kate Behan
Here's her baptism- http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/284ad40023789

Other possible children-
- Mary Anne (18 Aug.1871 Co.Kildare) https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F574-V8K
- Margaret (20 Jan.1873 Co.Kildare) https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FGY7-3Z7
- Elizabeth (25 Nov.1875 Co.Kildare) https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FG87-WXW

Strangely enough when searching for other possible children I found a baptism for a Catherine Quinn born 14 March 1874-
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/dce2db0135930

If all these children have the same parents there is just time for Catherine's 1874 birth but suspect the Co.Kildare parents might be a different couple- a problem with common names.
