View Full Version : Mary Sullivan


Asa

Date and place of birth around 1815 County Kerry

Names of parents John Sullivan (gardener)

Date and place of baptism - unknown

Details of each of his or her marriages - 7 Jan 1850 St John Clerkenwell London to Daniel Sullivan. They had been cohabiting for at least 14 years and I know of eight children born between 1835 and c1853.

Occupation(s) - laundress in 1871

Addresses where they lived (including county if in UK) - and please list which censuses you have or haven't found him/her on (if s/he lived in census times!).
1835/36 I am fairly confident that Mary and Daniel were in City Road Workhouse and had a daughter born there - though both parents are named at the baptism, she's recorded as baseborn.

1851 Saffron Hill piece 1515 folio 100 page 38
1861 - missing (parts of the area are)
1871 Clerkenwell, London piece 383 folio 26 page 46

Date, place and cause of death etc unknown

The only trace I have of Mary after the 1871 census is when she registers her daughter's death in September. I did get the death cert for a Mary who died Holborn 1877 aged 62 but that wasn't her and there aren't any other obvious ones. If she died out of Holborn district, which Mary Sullivan she might be is anyone's guess.
