Update on Maggie Maloney!

Question

Hello all,

I just looked at the 1880 schedule for Defective, Dependent and Delinquent Classes again and discovered that Maggie was epileptic and very much could not support herself but up until at least 1880 had not been outside of her home. I cannot find any record for her death or marriage now but I was wondering if anybody would know which one is more common her being married off or dying before adulthood since she has epilepsy?

Answer 1

I assume you have seen this entry in 1892 NY State census?

 

"New York State Census, 1892," database with images, FamilySearch(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MQ9Z-VXN : accessed 10 April 2016), Maggie Maloney, 1892; citing Hornellsville City, Ward 04, county offices, New York; FHL microfilm 512,430.

She appears in the second column of names, under William, Kate & Bridget and above Arthur.

Would you say this entry is the correct family?

Yes, I have noted that but did not find it super pertinent to my question although now that I think about it, it would have been better to note it than not at all.

Do you have her in any records post 1892?   It would appear she is single in 1892.

No although I have been looking into both possible marriages and possible death records. I have found some leads mentioned here: http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/196846/updated-search-results-for-maggie-s-husband
