that is WICKED .I never thought she had brothers and sisters , I have a copy of Minnies death cert and it tells me that Minnie was 29 when she married Thomas McDonald , born in Tasmania , I also have a copy of her marriage cert and it says she was 25,and is a widow ,so I looked and found her married to Thomas Roger Pearce in 1879 and widowed 1881 they had a son John James born 1880 , I have found quite a few age differences but it does say on birth cert for my gdad Neil McDonald that she could not write or read and the x is her mark .

interesting I thought maybe Bridget was using alias, I know she had 2 children 1 in 1853 no first name and 1856 who I believe is my great grandmother Minnie who I think was actually Margaret but I have yet to find a record of that
