I am trying to find Bridget McSorley born 15 Aug 1888 Castlederg; daughter of Patrick McSorley and Susan Thompson.
All I know of her is what I have found on the 1901/1911 Census. As of yet, no marriage, if any, nor a death.
In 1911 she is living with her sister Catherine (my gt grandmother) Lecky Rd Derry. Catherine died in 1962 and unfortunately there is no living family who can tell me if they remember Bridget or heard any stories about her. I don't think Bridget was living with Catherine at the time of Catherine's death but I don't know if that means she was already deceased herself or living elsewhere, most likely Castlederg.
1901: aged 12; Catholic; born Tyrone; liv 4 Garnett Tce Castlederg; Included in census is her father Patrick, her mother Susan and her sister Susan
1911: aged 21 (23); Catholic; born Derry; liv 40 Lecky Rd; a servant.Included in census is her sister Catherine, Catherine’s husband John McAnee, her nephews James, Patrick, John, Joseph, Hugh and William and o re than niece Mary
Although Census shows Bridget and Catherine's place of birth as Derry, it was actually Castlederg
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thank you but, as seen in my post, I already know about her birth and Census details.
I'm trying to find out what happened to her after 1911. Did she marry? If she did, I have yet to find a record. Not knowing her married name I won't be able to find a death. Not marrying, I have yet to find a record of death
