What else do you know about her? Parents' names?

There are two possibilities showing on Ancestry for 1841:

Ann Ryan

There are also quite a number of Ann (or variation) Ryans born in the years surrounding 1841 in Kilkenny.

I don't see any with the middle name Norah.

There are also a few Honorah Ryans.

Thank you very much for these. Unfortunately, I do no think they are correct.


Her marriage certificate states that her father's name is Patrick and he is a carpenter.

Neither Ancestry not irishgenealogy.ie show any marriage for an Ann Norah Ryan in Kilkenny.

Who did she marry, please? and when?

She married in England to James Parrott. 1911 census shows her place of birth as Kilkenny Greens Bridge Resident

ArgyllGran

She was a widow aged 70 in 1911.

Have you found her in earlier censuses?

For helpers' reference - a second marriage for her, presumably:

Marriages Jun 1883 (>99%)
JOHNSON Ann Norah Marylebone 1a 943
Parrott James Marylebone 1a 943

1891 also says she was born 1844. Are you assuming 1841 from her age at marriage?
Her death details imply birth c1843.

It would be helpful if you would tell us everything you know about her, instead of us searching for things you already know.

So her baptism/birth is either 1843/44

Looks like it.

However, there's still no sign of an Ann Norah's birth, unfortunately.

Where did you see Carpenter for Patrick, 1883 (London, Ancestry) states Labourer for his occ.

(oh, now seeing was 1861 Marriage (1st July, Residence at time for both, St. Marylebone) (notes a Mary Ann Ryan as witness)

(as Minor on 1861, and 38 on 1883, for Age given)
