A Martin Keogh born c 1849 from Sligo Ireland was a lodger with the BOWNON family in 1891 at 3 Crossley Street, Stranton, West Hartlepool. Head of the family is Annie Bownon a widow born 1852 Catterivk Bridge Yorkshire (could these be Catherines parents) Wrongly transcribed

Children of Annie in 1891 were Harry 1878, Clara 1881, Evan?? a daughter 1883 and Frederick 1887 all born Durham

GRO has MMN as Race and Clara as Bowmont and Evan as Eva BOWMAN

I can't find much else on any of them

Martin Keogh in 1891 was single - occupation Joiner

Father: Martin Keogh Beaumont

NOW we have a DoB........but it doesn't help with 1939, as there is no-one on there which could be her

Hello, yes I have the above. The background is that Catherine is on the 1901 and 1911 census with Annie as daughter. Nothing is known about Catherine. She is obviously the illegitimate daughter of Martin Keogh (the lodger) and Annie (he dies 1899 aged 51 in Hartlepool. As far as I know, Catherine was never mentioned by any of her siblings and she is not mentioned in Annie's Will. She is a mystery. Annie married in January 1891 to John Best but very briefly as he is back with his parents in 1901.

I am only trying to find info on Catherine from 1911 onwards, so please don't waste your time going back over but thank you very much for looking at my request.

I just edited my last post as it was easier than re typing some of it

There was also Osmaond Bowmont 1879 - 1880
Annies husband Charles died 1886 Hartlepool age 34

I think that Catherine Alice was probably the child of Annie and Martin Keogh

EDIT *** sorry Marion i've just read your last post :-)

Sometimes it is necessary to go 'back' in order to come 'forward' -especially when info is sparse.

I will leave this now, as there is no sign of her in 1939 as far as I can see

nnn

No help with Catherine, I'm afraid. Can't see her anywhere.

But re Annie's other children - you said you didn't have much on them.

Clara is with her mother in 1901.

This may be her in 1911:

Hello Shirley, I have George and I have his cemetery record from Durham records. Erika has mentioned the WW1 card earlier in the post. My brick wall is that after 1920 when Sylvia was born, there appears to be no record of them. The 1939 census has also been searched but without any luck which is why I thought they might have emigrated. I don't have any info on Walter other than his name on the baptism records for the children was Thomas Walter but his marriage was Walter. I am probably going to have to get the marriage certificate to see who his father was although I don't think it will help with going forward after 1920, but thank you for looking.

Ahh missed that

So much to read through and possibly some edited going on too

Missed the ref to George too :-(


So maybe you need the marriage cert for its info

It doesn’t help he seems to have different spellings of his surname

Hello Shirley, I've been in touch with Hartlepool library and they have given me an email address and they will look at their parish records for St James to see if (Thomas) Walter and Catherine Alice got married in church but this will take quite a while. If they didn't I will just have to fork out for the certificate. Many thanks.
