Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Cause of Death 1922--Marasnuis
« on: Thursday 03 January 13 09:02 GMT (UK)  »
Our 62 year old female ancestor died in Liverpool on the 1st of April 1922 and the cause of death is listed as "Marasnuis".  I've googled "Marasnuis" and have been presented with the word "marasmus--a form of severe malnutrition" which typically strikes children.  Can anyone tell me whether "Marasnuis & marasmus" are one in the same?
Cheers,
Renee

Thank you again Shane for taking the time to look for my John MEALY, he is an elusive character, isn't he?  Just so I have clarification, he would of been listed in one of these 3 directories if he was the owner of the bakery whereas if he was one of the employees he was unlikely to have an entry, correct?
cheers,

Yes, thank you, I do have copies of those baptismal records.  My husband and I made the journey to Dublin in Oct. 2011 in order to do some research.  Although it wasn't as fruitful as we had hoped in the research department, we certainly had the best pints of Guinness in the pubs!   :o

Well Shane, that is mighty interesting due to the fact that the Mealy's/Mealey's who relocated to Liverpool are all coach drivers.  Maybe John the baker is dead by this time....
I look forward to your reply.

Hi Shane,
Thanks so much for your response.  It is my assumption that his came from somewhere else...but you know what is said about people who assume.

Dublin / Marriage John MEALEY & Margaret BEDFORD 1806 Dublin city, now what?
« on: Friday 14 December 12 09:20 GMT (UK)  »
I am as sure as I can be that this is the correct entry for the marriage of John MEALEY and Margaret BEDFORD, April 22, 1806 St. Mary's Pro (catholic church).  Their first child is born Margaret in 1808 and is baptised at St. Andrew's which is about a 3 minute walk from St. Mary's.
I have discovered that John MEALEY was a baker in Dublin city due to the occupation listed on his children's marriage certificates.  I also know that his children went to Liverpool beginning in the 1840's and I do not believe (after much searching) that John MEALEY and his wife Margaret made the journey.
When researching, I did come across a newspaper entry which stated that John MEALEY was a witness in a dispute over the selling flour to a non-union member but this is the extent of information that I have been able to discover. 
Is there a way to round out John MEALEY the baker's story or when he relocated to Dublin city?
All suggestions welcome and thank you for taking the time.
Cheers,
Renee  :-\
