marriage 1936 Elizabeth Jane Wolstencroft, July Sep vol 2 page 459 Dublin South.

On the contrary- I think they could both be for the same person!

Elizabeth Jane Wolstencroft is listed for the 1936 marriage. There should be 4 brides and 4 grooms on the page (unless it's the end of register or there's a crossed out entry) BUT on this page there are FIVE female names and four male names. Two of the females are called Elizabeth Jane- one with the surname Wolstencroft and one Dowling.
So, it's possible that Elizabeth Jane married as Lily (a common nickname for Elizabeth) in 1913 to ? Dowling and then in 1936 as widowed/divorced Elizaneth Jane (Wolstencroft) Dowling.

Added- possibly Louis Dowling (marriage Jan./Mar.1913 Dublin South vol.2 page 507)- think Lily's entry has been mis-read and should also be p.507

More added- possible death: Louis Dowling (age 33) Oct./Dec.1918 Dublin North

My great grandfather was William Wolstencroft later changed to Croft. He was the son of Alfred and Sarah Wolstencroft who lived in Shaw street Dublin. Is there anything I can help you with?
