Many thanks for that Potty...if the family is correct then Catherine aged abt 71 is living
Consett Harvey St. ( ? Workhouse).

Waterson Catherine.W.71 years.b.Ireland....Rag collector.

There were a good few O'Neils (Charlie) and Brids (Waterson) living around the Easington Lane area...

This lot must be giving Sami an almighty headache..!!

Here you are, Erin:

It does look as if there were two Charles and Bridget O'Neills.

I think Samantha needs to get Susan's marriage cert. The address might give clue!

Potty Can you list the names of the Waterson's (1851) living next to the O'Niells..this is getting more confusing as we go along !! and I dont have 1851 Census to cross ref with..
Many Thanks...

1841 - this is a bit confusing as the "Mrs Charles O'Neill" is Charles O'Neill Junior on the image. These are all shown as one household:

I think that is the wrong family - this one looks better for ages:

Looks like the family in 1861, although Susan/na's age is out - it is definitely 9 on the image but possibly mistranscribed by the enumerator?

Struggling to find Sarah and Charles in 1901
- did they have any children? If so, who, where and when?

Also, are there any address on the marriage cert for them and what is Charles's occupation?

sorry eringobragh1916, yes susan oneil married michael kelly. im really new to this and its all a bit confusing, lol.

Sami...How is Susan O'Neill the mother of Sarah Kelly (previous post)...surely Sarah's maiden name would be O'Neill given I cant see by her age that she would have been married and widowed before she married Charlie Quinn..even then she would have been married in her maiden name...

Are you actually looking for a Susan O'Neill marrying a Michael Kelly...???

sarah kelly married charles quinn,
13th july 1896. she was 18
sarahs father named michael kelly/ deceased/ hawker
charles quinns father names john quinn. / stone mason.
this makes sarahs dob. 1878 i think
