Cork / Norah Roche
« on: Wednesday 27 February 08 23:26 GMT (UK)  »
I'm searching for information on Norah Bridget Roche who was born 2 May 1885 to Michael Roche and his wife Mary Anne Clifford in Ahern, Cork.  Michael was a Constable in the RIC (?).  The birth certificate shows Ahern to be in the District of Ballynol, Fermoy, Cork.  Would appreciate any information about this family.

Hi Mo-jo, I fear there is no connection.  My Michael Roche probably didn't leave Ireland.  He was a policeman and his wife was Mary Ann Clifford.  None of the names you have given are those of their children.  Sorry, and good luck with your search.   Jeune

Hello, it's lovely to here from you.  All I know about Mary Anne Clifford was that she was married to Michael Roche who was a police constable in the RIC (Royal Irish Constabulary?) and they lived in Ahern, District of Fermoy, County Cork.  I am not aware that either of them went to England although their son Denis went to England and became a police officer.  Through him Norah met her future husband, William Alfred Brooks, whose father was also a police officer.  Norah went to England to help out with her Uncle Denis's family and married William Brooks in 1909 in London.  It would be nice to find a link there.  Cheers,  Jeune

Thank you Valda, I do appreciate your efforts to find the elusive Henry Marsden.  He has been difficult to track down, but I'll keep trying.  Kind regards, Jeune

Thanks Pauline for your quick response.  Henry was 23 and Mary Ann was 25 at the time of their marriage.  Henry was a Minister of the Baptist Church.  In case of any confusion, it was Henry who migrated to Australia and died 6 months later of TB, not his father William.

I am seeking details of Henry Marsden, who lived in Woodhouse St,'Mansfield prior to his marriage on February 2nd, 1875 to Mary Ann Lea of Leopold St Derby. The marriage took place at the Ormaston Road General Baptist Chapel, Derby. Henry's father was William Marsden (dec) an ironmonger. He migrated to Australia about 1879, and died about six months after his arrival.

Thank you Phil, on re-reading your post, I see that Elizabeth aged 14 was a servant and therefore counted in the Cornwell household.  Cheers, Jeune

Thank you so much, Chris and Phil.  This is really fascinating.  It appears that Elizabeth is the daughter of William who must have shared a home with his brother Thomas but I wonder where Elizabeth was in 1851 when she would have been only about 13 or 14.  'Tis a puzzlement!  My kind regards to you both.

Thank you Phil, you have been enormously helpful.  I will do as you suggest and request a lookup for the 1841 Census.  Thanks again.
