Yes they are the ones. Apparently has Williams age in three reports as 50, 44 and also 40.
I did notice it said he came from Blackburn but had lived in Burnley for a number of years so I presumed they were on the census in 1901in Burnley. Annie death registered in December of 1902and it sys she was 39.but discrepancies for William Walsh, s age. I do know he was a weaver. Not sure if Maggie was born in 1902byt she coukd have been born in Blackburn. I wondered if anyone coukd find them in 1901living in Burnley, perhaps via Annie and Maggie whose ages coukd be more accurate?

At the time of Maggie dying in 1902 they were living on a street named clock face which was probably near St James Street in Burnley.

Hi
Trying to discover the marriage of a William Walsh and Annie who were living in Burnley in 1902.. They lived in park area of Burnley which I think was the Irish area of town. They both died in 1902 in December. Their daughter Maggie also died in December of the same year at ten years old. William was 40 when he died and Annie was 39 so both born approx 1862.
Child Maggie was baptised at St Mary's which was a Catholic Church so just presuming either one or both were of the Catholic faith. I am unable to find a marriage. I think they only had one child, Maggie, possibly, or grown up older children. Can anyone find them on the 1901census living in Burnley?
Thanks
