Trying to find more on Anna/Aurora (Nolan) Alpin

Question

Hi everyone,

I am looking to find more information on my 4x Great-Grandmother, Anna/Aurora (Nolan) Alpin.

I have come across records that list her name as Anna or Aurora, and another possible record of her lists her name as Alice. So that is 1 mystery I am looking to uncover.

I only recently found out her maiden name from a transcription of marriage records from Holy Family Church in Auburn NY. She is listed as the mother of Mary Ann Alpin (transcribed in the record as Mariam A Allin), who married Patrick Sloan on June 8, 1872. All the names match with what I have on my tree already, including the groom and his listed parents Christopher Sloan & Bridget Keigan (or Keogan).

She was born in Ireland most likley sometime between 1820 and 1825. Her husband's name was Michael Alpin.

Hopefully you all can help me solve this brickwall of mine

Much thanks,

~Robert M. Ward

I'm not sure this is her. The cemetery's website has an internment roster, and it states that she was 52 when interred in 1899. She would've been way too young, considering her daughter Mary was born in 1854. Although it could also be possible that the age when she was interred could've been mistranscribed from whatever record they looked at.
