Annie O'Malley from Mayo

[abyrne]

1901 census shows Patrick J Stanton age 30 grocer shopkeeper at 167 Burlington St born Ireland, wife Catherine age  30 also born Ireland, daughters Mary W age 4,  & Catherine age 2. Three shop assistant/servants all born Ireland: Patrick I O'Malley age 20, Michael O. Reilly age 19 & Michael McLoughlin age 23.  a domestic servant Mary Boylan age 46 and a Nurse Jane Dickinson age 14 both born Liverpool.

1911 census at 9 Limekiln Ln, Liverpool show Patrick Jos. Offal Salesman born Louisburgh Ireland age 36 (10 years later he and his wife only 6 years older) wife Catherine 36, daughter Mary (14) Catherine (12) and Sons Thomas(9), Patrick Joseph (7) and Andrew Miles (less than 1)

So a Louisburgh and butcher connection.

The marriage record between Thomas O'Malley and Lilian Robinson arrived. 

They were not married in a church.  They were married in the Liverpool Register Office 15 April 1931.

He  was a bachelor, his father William O'Malley (deceased).  Thomas, age 33, bachelor,  was a Pork Butcher (Shopman) residence 38 Hopwood St, Liverpool.

Lilian age 22 , spinster, Pork butchers assistant, 39 Louis Street, Liverpool,  father William Robinson I believe it says occupation : Oil Mill Hand.

Witnesses were J. Blackburn & M. Blackburn (no idea who they were). It also says married by certificate (not by License like James' said ) I don't know what the difference is between certificate and license

I guess it would make sense they would name their son William.

Proof Annie was free to marry

birth Record for Martin Arthur Durkin born 30 Jan 1901 finally arrived and had a lot of information. Father: Michael Durkin of 7 Greek St, Mt Pleasant sub-district of Liverpool.  Occupation  Master Butcher (of course)  mother (Here is what we did not know) Emily Durkin formerly McCrann.

Does this help find any more info about the marriage? She did not live long after his birth according to census info.

There is a marriage in Dublin North March quarter 1899 vol 2 pg 488 where Michael Durkin and Emily M'Crann have the same reference.

Thank you. The Irish GRO is much more difficult to get records from than UK GRO

I know Michael Durkin was born in County Mayo, Ireland and was in Liverpool in 1891. I wonder why he would go to Dublin to marry?

Which leads me then to wonder where Patrick Alfred Durkin and Helen Caulefield might have married since it doesn't appear it was in Liverpool.

The Grave for Bridget Durkin O'Malley's youngest daughter, Bridget OMalley showed she was buried in Liverpool in Plot H508.  She was 3 years old 9/4/1898 living at 8 Greek St ( note Michael Durkin's son, Martin Arthur was born at 7 Greek St Liverpool)

Bridget married husband #2 Michael Malley 29 June 1898.

Hi there,

Just catching up with this thread, but have been vaguely aware of it for a few years.  I haven't done any serious research since Spring of 2011 when the hunt for Olympic tickets started to take over my life! [from one obsession to another :-) ]

But just to say that my paternal grandmother was Winifred Mary Stanton who was a double 1st cousin of Mary Winifred Staunton, wife of James Joseph O'Malley.

I know a fair bit about both the Stanton/Stauntons and the O'Malleys. I've seen the Durkin name on plenty of census records as well.  All the families were involved in the import of pork from Northern Ireland (Armagh allegedly) and had ALOT of pork butcher shops across Liverpool.

If you have any questions, fire away,

Cheers

John

Thanks.  I was having internet connection problems.  But all is well now.  So nice to hear from you.  I responded to your message as well. Do you happen to know anything about James Joseph & Mary Winifred's son James?  Did he marry & have a family?  Was one of the Butcher shops of Liverpool located at 78 Soho St to your knowledge? I look forward to hearing from you again.
