Hi cousin Janice,
No, we are definitely talking about the same Catherine Cousins nee. Kennedy. I have searched records and there was a Catherine Kennedy that came out in 1849, plus two other Catherine Kennedy's. However, there is a child Elizabeth born in 1845. Listed on the register to Joseph & Cath Cousin? Which makes me think that coming out in 1849 doesn't all add up. At the same time, if his first wife Mary as you say didn't pass away till 1849. Then how does the entry exist on the register. It's all very interesting, I think there is more to the story than what we already know maybe? There were quite a few Catherine Kennedy's. I think I need to look into and see why there is another child in 1845 and it isn't the previous wife you listed either Mary. Is a bit strange and it isn't the first multiple entry for Joseph and Catherine Cousins.
Yes, my 4th great grandmother passed away on the 5th of November 1868. Only 16 days after the birth of her daughter Alice
Alice passed away 1869 aged 7 months
My nana is Catherine's 2nd great granddaughter. Elizabeth Catherine Brooks nee. Cousins 1851 is my 3rd great grandmother. Also, have you read the will & probate of Joseph? It is very interesting, my 3rd great grandmother Elizabeth Brooks was the administrator of her father's will. My 3rd great grandmother goes on to say in a letter, that the said Sarah Pierce was informed by me (Elizabeth) and also said sister Mary Ann that I (Elizabeth) was making an application for authority for administration. Sarah refused to sign and my 3rd great grandmother says she knowingly knows the application will be made. All other siblings signed. Also, one sister was excluded from administering. Are you able to shed any light on this? I'm in Victoria, I don't like to share my private details online. Is there some way I could inbox you maybe?
I have little ones, so may not always reply straight away.
Will definitely try and keep in touch
Hope you have lovely Christmas & New Year too,
Kind regards
