 I am also a decendant of John Pulford and Emma Fowler.  My Grandmother was Mary Maude Pulford daughter of Samuel and Catherine (Cummins) Pulford.

Would be happy to hear from other decendants.

Hi Sue,

Thank you for your reply.   Franklin also has been in touched but I have lost his details when I bought a new computer any assistance re the family would be helpful.   I know Catherine Cummins nee O'Reilly had been previously married to a man named Brindley, sadly he and several sons past away leaving only a daughter Mary.
Regards

Hi Broz,
To get the best out of a Rchat search you need to tell all you know about your request. It is surprising where small details can lead

Suggestions.

How do you know about the previous marriage?

What exactly is your source and what dates and details do you have?

When and where did the BRINDLEY death occur?

What more do you know of the surviving MARY?

Adding .....I cannot see a marriage for CATHERINE  ORILEY and WILLIAM CUMMINS. I think it did not happen.
