Joseph Walsh family help

[taramcdsmall]

IF

Anne Finley was the daughter of

Sarah Finlay (nee Foley)

Then Sarah can't be a Walsh

So can only be a daughter of Mary's which would make Mary . . . Mary Foley

There are some other options like multiple marriage which we can look into too !

The two marriages you found for Patrick to Mary Foley and Mary Ledmond. Do we keep hold of the Ledmond or is that to be scrapped?

Did I find a Walsh / Foley marriage ?

Give me a sec to scroll back !

You're working well, Tara

Sorry my bad. It was said the marriage could not be found.

Danny

HA I'm going barmy !

Anyway

I did see a Walsh / Foley marriage

BUT

it's 1888

That would make Joseph & Elizabeth illegitimate so we need to tread carefully now !

Was just going to post that and see what you thought.

This one is going to keep us busy

With the exception of the Joseph Walsh to parents Patrick and Mary Ledmond there doesn't seem to be the birth for Joseph yet.

Gonna have a quick look now.

Can I just suggest for a mo that we 'park' the Anne Finlay situation.

I'm just worried that her description on the 1901 Census COULD be a red herring.

She could have been related numerous different ways and was just written down as Granddaughter # it's VERY common.

I think we need to KEEP looking for Joseph & Elizabeth leads.

What later address' do you have for Joseph Walsh ?

The prison records MIGHT give me a lead BU I need a good keyword to narrow down the possibilities !
