Michael CROWLEY - immigrated from Ireland?

[cando]

Children: Minnie (dead), John 14, James 12, Margaret 10, Michael 8, Austin 6, Nicholas 4, Anne (dead), Dennis (dead)

Catherine/Mary/Minnie are the one and same born 1864.  If she was born in late 1864 and died early 1866 she would have been 1 year old.

Earlier in the thread in her Reply#2 and Reply #4, when she gave the death notices  for Michael and Hanorah and Hanorah's CROWLEY's  death reg, Rosball did comment on the sadness of seeing the two deaths of a couple so close together.

Sad mostly for those left behind, I suppose.

I'm pretty sure they died in 1912 - especially since the link to the will and probate earlier was settled April 1913. Also the newspaper records of their death were published in 1912. The probate also lists the living children (including my great grandmother who was by then married), confirming Michael Crowley of Pound Creek who died 28 Nov 1912 is the correct Michael Crowley.

Cando - you are too quick!!!


sparrett - I think you just cracked the mystery of where the OLoughlin fits... but how do they connect?  If her parents were Harkin, was she married before?  Were they adoptive parents?

[sparrett]

The dates on the MI are an error, possibly on the part of the person commissioning the inscription, or on the part of the Cemetery transcribers.

There was no death in 1913 for Michael CROWLEY in Victoria.

Note the date and month are correct for him per the news item.  The year is not.

I wonder how accurate the info is on that cert as this appears to be the couple's marriage
