Lalor confusion
« on: Friday 07 February 14 17:45 GMT (UK) »
I've hit a brick wall on my Lalor side of the family.  Mary Lalor (born 1861) is my 3rd great grandmother. Her marriage certificate to John Lawless in 1887, identified her father as Walter Lawlor, he was deceased and was a farmer.   

After working off of Roots Ireland, I found a bunch of baptism records with Walter Lalor and Anne Madden as well as a Mary Madden.  At first I thought it was the same woman, but come to find out there were two Walter Lalors during that time period who had children with a female last named Madden. One being Ann Madden, then the other Mary Madden

 
1855: Walter Lalor & Mary Madden were married in Co. Waterford
1860: Walter Lalor & Ann Madden were married in Co. Waterford

        Civil Death     Lalor   Walter  1872    61      Co. Tipperary
        Civil Death     Lawlor  Walter  1868    48      Co. Tipperary


So at this point, I feel like I'm going in circles because now I can't pinpoint which Walter Lalor my Mary is the daughter of.   I'm not sure if both Walter's were farmers.  The Walter Lalor that died in 1872 was a farmer and the informant was Ann Madden Lalor.


Can anyone else shed some light on the definite kids of Walter Lalor & Ann Madden?   Specifically their daughter Mary?  Because two Mary's were born only months apart in 1861.   

Both Lalor families resided in Clonmel at the same time period.   

From what I have gathered, Walter & Mary Madden had these kids:

Ann: 1856
Ellen: 1857
Brigid: 1859
Mary: 1861
Margaret: 1863
Catherine: 1865
John: 1867
Honora/Norry: 1869

Walter & Anne Lalor had:

Mary: 1861
Thomas: 1864
Richard: 1867
Ann: 1869
