Carney and McGough marriage abt 1864

[heywood]

I guess I should mention that Anne McGough was born near Castlebar in Mount Gordon. The birth home stayed in the family until about 1900.
There were 4 Anne McGoughs born between 1843 and 1848.
None had a father with given name initial of M (three J, One A, and Patrick).

My Anne was born to Patrick. Of course, I am trying to complete the link between Anne McGough Carney and my Anne McGough. Hope I didn't confuse the issue by saying Anne McGough Carney was born in Mount Gordon.

I am confused but as you know the family house until 1900 - I think you would know best.
Your first post says that you 'believe' Anne to be the daughter of Patrick and Anne Ronane.
However, her marriage details have father, Mick which you 'believe' should be Patrick.
She got married from Devleash West - but may have been in service or similar.
The baptisms of the children in Islandeady would support the Mount Gordon scenario as would the marriage -Castlebar district. It may be best to get that civil certificate to see what the details are.

Not sure if this is any use to you but it looks as though a Maria McGough married Martin Corley. They have the same reference details as the 1864 marriage.
Family Search has Balla for their children.
1901 has Maria in Balloor East, Tawnynagry and there is a brother Mark McGough with them.

Thanks for the comments; let me try and clear up my mess.
(a). First the facts of my Anne McGough: She was born in September 1848 and the baptism record is shown in Aglish RC Parish September 10 1848. She was born to Patrick McGough (b abt 1818) and Anne Ronane (b abt 1820). Patrick and Anne had their first child in 1840, and they lived in Mt Gordon; all birth records for their four children are shown as baptized in Aglish RC parish. The grandson of Patrick McGough and Anne Ronane (Peter) McGough actually lived in the home in 1901 and 1911. All other parents, children and grandchildren had moved-on (or died) by 1901.
(b). It is not clear what happened to two of the children born to Anne Ronane and Pat McGough (there names were Anne b 1848 and James b 1853). I did find the marriage record and census records for Anne McGough married to Robert Carney in 1864, but it shows the marriage in Burriscarra RC parish. The address for Anne is listed as Dearleash West (possibly Devleash West?), but that location does seem a bit far from Mt Gordon. The 1901 census shows Anne’s age as 52 and the 1911 census shows her age as 67. The census in 1911 shows they were married abt 1863. The census shows they lived in Forfield, or Gowel (Aghagower North, Mayo).
My research shows three Ann McGoughs born in South Mayo between 1845 and 1850, and none had a father named Mick. Their names began with initials A, P, and J.
I have been trying to show that (a) & (b) above are the same Anne, but I guess without the original records, transcript errors will block my progress.

Thanks for the explanation.
Am I right then, that the Carney/McGough marriage may not be your Anne and you are not descended from any of the children of that marriage. Therefore the people in the census are not part of your family?

There is also the possibility that baptism records are not available for other Anne McGoughs born in that period which may account for an Anne,daughter of Michael.

It is certainly possible that there were two Ann McGough born about the same time. The main reason for my post was to try and discover if my Anne was the same as the Anne McGough Carney.
 
However, I still doubt the the father of Anne M Carney was a Mick. I have found many errors is RC birth and marriage digital records and would not be surprised that this one is not correct either. My grandfather (Patrick McGough, b 1840) was the older brother of Anne McGough born to Patrick McGough and Anne Ronane and I thought he may have been the witness listed on the marriage record; he left Ireland in 1867.

None of four children (born to Patrick McG and Anne R) stayed connected as they grew older and thus finding a descendant that knows more about Anne (b 1848) and James (b 1853) has been nearly impossible. Since Robert Carney and Anne McGough had eight children, I am hoping to find one of their descendants that know more.
