Research Notes

While it definitely says her father was Francis Carvill, labourer, on her marriage record, there are no birth records between 1869-1883 for a Margaret Carvill (with various spellings) with a father named Francis. There is a record for Margaret born on 30 Nov 1877 in Downpatrick to a Thomas Carvill and Alice Carlin, registration no. 10033271 (https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details-civil/23c7c710033271)(https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1877/02991/2096047.pdf)

Carvill-123 and Carvill-122 appear to represent the same person because: Potential duplicate - both married the same spouse same day

The Carvill / Carlin marriage is in my family tree, and I really don't think it is right for your Margaret. Sorry.

But....I think the Margret Carville born in Armagh 29 Feb 1876 is a better bet.

I see Raphael McKenna made changes to my family tree, the changes he made are wrong. According to my searches Margaret was born 15 January 1877. died September 1960 aged 83. Margaret McClure//Carvill was My Grand Mother on my Fathers side. Re Raphael dates would have Margaret 90 Years old which I know she was not.

I do not like people changes any thing on my tree, if someone see's some thing they think might be wrong send me a note and I will check into it. Albert McClure

Albert,

Fair enough, but are you not curious that the Civil Records show a Margaret Carvill was born in the same area, EXACTLY seven years earlier. I have no wish to disparage your family members, but in my experience, women often understate their age ..... So, what source are you citing, for her birthdate?
