There are few Davis famlies in Aughrusbeg/Aughrus Beg this John And wife Bridget may be Anne's brother

Their marriage in 1889

gives Thomas as deceased.

This appears to be Johanna's death with John as informant in 1899

Thomas' death in 1883 with Johanna as informant

Thomas Davis and Johanna Morris had a daughter Anne in 1864

Bit too old for your Anne with an age at marriage of 24 in 1897 so born c1873. Not that she is consistent with her age in the Census.

Where did you find her mother as Johanna Morris?

Does that say Johanna Walsh as Thomas Davis's wife?


Morris is the information from my grandma and her family
Gordon, Cameron, Gillen

I missed the Walsh this morning, a bit tired sorry.
No it just says she was present when he died, she could be a neighbour, friend, anything but not his wife.

Assuming your Grandmother knows her family best, it looks like Anne was confused about her age and she was born 1864.
1864 is the year civil registration started in Ireland so her parents won't have a marriage cert.
The parish is Roundstone but their records don't start until 1872

The other possibility is the 1864 Anne died and her name was used again (quite common practice) but I don't see a death or birth to back up this idea.

Ah you might be in luck Aughrusbeg is listed under two parishes
Omey has much better records

Hopefully your family attended a church in this parish.
