KENNY - McGRILLIS - Queensland

[Neil Todd]

In one of my earlier posts I had two registrations for Bridget, now I look again it looks as if there actually two deaths same year same name. Bridget B and Bridget. Obviously Bridget B is the one originally married to a John McCullough and lived in Goulburn. This is very strange

Thanks for your continued help Neil.

I checked out the link and it seems that Bridget Britelia's surname was CARROL and according to the McCullough Family Tree she is also the one that died 1898 so rules her out.

So I wonder what happened to the Bridget KENNY that married John McCullough in 1854 Sydney?  Confusion reigns

According to NSW BDM, as I you already mentioned, there seems to be 2 John & Bridget McCULLOUCH families, one in Sydney and the other in Goulburn.  By what we have discovered, the Goulburn family is John McCULLOUGH and Bridget Britelia CARROL so we can cross them off the list.  Thanks for info Neil.

I will try and find info on the Sydney family.

Well that does leave the other Bridget McCullough died same year at Leichardt.

There are quite a few deaths of John McCullough's some much earlier than her, which means a possible remarriage? Having looked I cannot find one that stands out. She could remarry under Kenny or McCullough

Marg, do you have the death certificate for John McGrillis 1884? If so who was the informant of death noted on it?
