According to what you've posted the 1st wedding was registry office and 2nd a church ceremony so it might be that the 2nd one will only be found in church records.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hi Gaffy,

The 1911 census is definitely Sarah Kirwan's family, despite the incorrect spelling of the family name.
I know this for certain because I met many of her siblings (my father's aunts and uncles), including
Teresa, Thomas and Annie, all who emigrated to Glasgow, Scotland.

My Nana Susan and another sister Lizzie also emigrated to Glasgow. Their Mother went with them. On marriage, Tess’s name became Monaghan, Annie’s name became Farmer, Lizzie’s name became Nawn and my Nana Susan’s name became McCahery. They had a brother James who emigrated to Canada.
