Mary Report 16 Oct 2019 09:58

God mother of Margaret baptised 18/2/1892

Julia Burke 1871 Wigan parents Patrick and Mary
Julia married Michael Duncan Gorman 1891 in Burnley

They look to be the same ones as on census they are in same area of Margaret Walsh and Mary Ann Edmondson in 1901.St Peters Burnley

Julia and children went to USA 1906/7

But still no nearer with the maiden name of Annie Walsh.

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 15 Oct 2019 11:03

The newspaper article says that William had left Maggie in Mary Ann Edmondson's care after Annie's death in 1902 - but she was already with Mary Ann in 1901, so Annie and William must have moved out before then.

Still don't see them, though.

I did find a Maggie Walsh born in 1902in Blackburn but mum's maiden name was Woods. I did find a Maggie Walsh baptised in 1902in Burnley St Mary's to a William and Annie Walsh in the Catholic faith. So not sure still.
Thanks
