Jean- we know from the 1939 register that Michael Mccann was born 1863.

His marriage certificate lists his father as Dan (Daniel)

In 1901 Michael's mother Bridget is living with Michael's wife, Bridget.

This is Michael's baptism- his mother's maiden name was Devaney:

Name: Michales McCann
Baptism Age: 0
Event Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 1863
Baptism Date: 26 Dec 1863
Baptism Place: Swineford, Mayo, Ireland
Abode: Kilbride
Diocese: Achonry
Father: Daniel McCann
Mother: Brigida Devaney
----------------------------------------------------------

He had the following siblings (there may be more):

Bridget born 1861
John 1870
Daniel 1873
Ellen 1876
------------------------------------------

The date of birth or baptism you give for Bridget doesn't produce any results on Ancestry.

Here's just one of many possibles in Mayo (from Family Search), but again, I can't say if this is her or not. It's a pity the marriage record didn't include fathers' names!:


Bridget
