Biography
Winifred Mulhair was born about 1850 in Ireland.[1][2]
She moved to Scotland.[3]
Winifred Mulhair married Francis McKenna on 12 Apr 1869 in Edinburgh, Scotland.[4]
In the 1871 Scotland census, Winifred McKenna (McKennon) (21, born Ireland) was living in St Giles, Edinburgh, Scotland, with husband Francis McKenna (25) and son Charles McKenna (1). Her occupation was listed as hawker.[1]
Her husband Francis McKenna apparently died probably before 1885. Winifred then remarried to George Robertson.
