Research Notes

I couldn't spot a matching death record in the civil registration for Bantry; nor of this family in the 1901/11 ensuses. Also no evidence of her turning up in New Zealand where daughter Mary lived.

There are two death regs for a Cornelis Daly , Bantry district:

• 30 Sep 1895 age 85, widower, Kilcrohane townland, inf. Cornelius Daly, son.
• 30 Dec 1890, Carrivallen (Kilcrohane RD), widower, 90, ifn. Margaret Daly, Carrivalleen.

The first one matches townland , Catherine was given as "Kilcrohane" on her marriage record.

There are two matching Catholic marriages in parish register - that is, for Cornelius Daly of Kilcrohane (aka. Muintervarra) before 1850:

• 12 Feb 1831 to Honora Mahony
• 1 Mar 1832 to Margaret Mahony.

There is a death 1894 Hanora Daly at Carrivallen, widow, inf. Ellen Daly, Carrivallen.
