nora devlin  nee savage is terences daughter in law she married john devlin terences son.and nora devlin would have been my granny.

Hi,
   I noticed from the census that Terence Devlin had been married before and that Samuel is not living at that address.
Samuel married Nora Devlin in Belfast R.C. Church on 4 Dec 1913. The date is too late for my sources to give any children.

Regards

i looked up that marriage, its gives samuel's father as samuel and norah's as patrick, are we on the right track here.


                                                           regards mary.

hi, yes we think that terence was married before, who is samual that you talk about, it wasnt samual who married noah it was the youngest son john who is my grand father..

[kingskerswell]

Maryderry,
                 I think that you are correct. It is I who got confused, my apologies to Beth. I now see that it is the son John 11 months old who married a Nora Savage. Unfortunately this is also outside my timescales.

[bethcleary]

john and nora are my grand parents what relation are you to them

[kingskerswell]

I am not related, like others on the site I try to help where I can. In this case I got carried away with a marriage of Nora Savage to a Samuel Devlin. However I think that your Terence married Mary Kirk in Belfast R.C. Church in 1905.
