Anne , (maiden name unknown) Doherty, b about 1836 in Glanmire, married a Thomas Doherty.They had a son Joseph b abt 1865. Joseph married Ellen Flynn in 1886.She died in 1891. In 1911 census, Anne, then a widow, age 75, living on Domenick St in Shandon with her Grandaughter, also Ann Doherty, age 22. (my Grandmother) The elder Anne died in 1913 , address Trimbaths Lane, a hop skip and jump around the corner from Domenick St. A person with her at time of death was an Ellen Doherty. On searching the 1911 census, a family with head of household , Thomas Doherty, possible a son of Anne, ? who was age 38, with a wife Ellen. Thomas born in Glanmire also. This family lived on Wolfe Tone St, another hop, skip and jump away from Trimbaths Lane. And last but not least, another family with a Joseph Doherty, age 44 in 1911, with a daughter Fanny, less than 1 yr old. He lived on Broad Lane which is a bit further away but still in same vicinity. I am wondering if this Joseph is the one born abt 1865, who could be my Gr Grandfather. His first wife died age 25 and their first daughter named Fan also. He was not around according to oral history and his two daughters from first marriage raised by a Grandmother. In 1911 census, he was 44, and only married to this wife for about 1 yr and this wife quite a bit younger. So, bottom line, does anyone have knowledge of these Doherty family`s? I can`t assume they are related but it sure seems a possibility re the ages, naming patterns, and close proximities where they lived. (Hope this wasn`t too confusing to follow!) Thx for any feedback.

Hi Heather, Just a word of warning about the 1911 census for Cork, there are large chunks of people missing from the census including about 85% of my relations, the reason being that they filled in their information in the Irish language, these records have yet to be transcribed, it mostly applys to West Cork, Bandon, Skibbereen, Clonakilty, Dunmanway etc. Brendan ----- "Heather H" <[email protected]> wrote: > Anne , (maiden name unknown) Doherty, b about 1836 in Glanmire, > married a Thomas Doherty.They had a son Joseph b abt 1865. > Joseph married Ellen Flynn in 1886.She died in 1891. > > In 1911 census, Anne, then a widow, age 75, living on Domenick St in > Shandon with her Grandaughter, also Ann Doherty, age 22.
