Biography

Margaret was born about 1870 in Ireland.

We had thought that John had married an Margaret O'Keefe. However, their daughter Charlottte's birth record combined with their marriage certificate proves that the correct wife for John is Margaret McDonald.

On Charlotte's birth record Margaret is referred to as olim McDonald... We know that this is the correct Charlotte because it ties in with her other records.

Margaret married John Davies in early 1891, having given birth in 1890.

BIRTH

Marriage cert of Jan 1891 says she was 21 and father George, deceased, a labourer.

The 1891 census says born Ireland abt 1870.

Cannot find record.

The address is 18 Aber Street...

  • See also John's profile.

Then there is STRONG a possibility that she died, since Charlotte apparently next appears in 1901 with her grandparents in Tenby.

DEATH

Here is a plausible death which approximates to her estimated birth year and is also a Catholic burial:

• Margaret Davies in the England & Scotland, Select Cemetery Registers, 1800-2016 Name: Margaret Davies Age: 22 Record Type: Burial Birth Date: abt 1870 Death Date: abt 1892 Burial Date: 2 Dec 1892 Burial Place: Liverpool, Lancashire, England Cemetery Section: Roman Catholic

Her address is given as 33 Tatlock Street, which is in central Liverpool, just off Scotland Road. (So it just might not be her... but the birth year is about right.)

Here is another possible:

Age is right, and address given as 6 Torr Street, Everton (now known as Red Rock View or New red Rock View), just half a mile east north east of Aber Street.

If this is right, what happens to John after this? See his profile for possibilities...
