Can anyone
do a marriage look up for MARGARET MAHONEY?
I dont have alot of info on her, but she would have got married after 1937. She was living in Darfield near Barnsley in 1937 but she could have moved anywhere, and I believe she was born between 1918-1923,
Can someone please help me?
Thanks
Lorraine

If you are asking people to search for marriage for Margaret Mahoney thought it best to put them in the picture with the PM information I sent you so they can see where searches have got too so far!

Hi Lorraine
I have just searched for marriage for Margaret Mahoney in Darfield, Barnsley district from 1938 -1946 and all the marriages seem to be London area?
Not one with that name in the Barnsley District.
Have you thought, that if she were a Nurse she could very well have been sent to another area with The War?
Nurses were in demand in City's due to bombing and the like?
If she was sent elsewhere then there are loads of Margaret Mahoney's to consider and knowing the right one will be the problem.
On the birth certificate is she given as just Margaret and no middle name?
Very difficult really with the War and limited information.
Maybe you could check with the Local Library of Darfield/Barnsley and ask for electoral roll for the address you have on the birth certificate.
They should be able to tell you who lived at that address other than Margaret Mahoney, maybe that would give us a starting point.
Maybe she lived with her Parents or siblings and we could get a lead from there, also at that stage electoral roll would be for people over 21 I think, so if she is on it at that address then at least we know she was over 21 when she had your Father?
What do you think?

Thanks Janice,
I've rung the library and she is not listed as living at the address I gave you in 1936,1937 or 1938. I am presuming its because she was under 21 as you said.
My only option seems to be to get a list of all Marriages and try to work my way thru them.

Hi Lorraine
Well at least we know she was not listed there in those years.
Did they say if there were any Mahoney's resident there so we could get a lead?
There was a Nurses Home in Darfield maybe she was resident there?
Maybe they could check a few years earlier to see if she was in fact older than we think and had actually left home to reside in the nurses home, but gave her home address for the birth.
Anyone trying to help Lorraine should also view previous thread:
Searching for help in Yorkshire:
Looking for Margaret Mahoney- Nurse.
Lets see if anyone else can find anything?
Janice

It seems in 1936 living at the address (over 21) was Emily Richards & George James Sibbald.
In 1937, Emily Richards & George Henry Beasley.
In 1938 Emily Richards, George Henry Beasley & Joseph Widdeson.
Sounds like the address was some kind of lodgings?

Hi Lorraine
Interesting but not helped us really!

May not be connected but just thought Parents could be young enough to have had Margaret later on?

Janice x

Im not sure. By my estimate the earliest she was born was 1919, so that would make Elizabeth above age 48 when she had her. Though it very probably is some kind of relation to her.
Thanks

Yes, that is possible!
Guessing a bit here now I think, but then what can you do?
Have you looked on Darfield Sing it is on Google, if you type in Darfield Nurses Home it comes up.
It has some information in relation to the former nurses home which is now a private house seemingly, but gives information that you could obtain seemingly which may help?

Just been checking births for Margaret Mahoney 1918 - 1922 and most seem to come from Wales?
Merthyr T AREA AND SUCH?

Janice x

She could have come from anywhere?

Here is one coincidence!
Margaret Mahoney registered in Poplar September Quarter 1923.
REF: 1C 639

Just thought with BEASLEY at the address in 1937 seemed strange?
If she was born so late though that makes her only 14 years of age when she gave birth?
If it gives her as a Nurse then she was a young Nurse?
Have known young person's described as Nurse in early census when they were actually employed to look after children of the household and described as Nurse?
Maybe we should look for a Beasley to Mahoney marriage before this birth in 1923?
See if we can place this Beasley lady in Barnsley area?

Viewd image and it is BEASLEY NOT BREARLEY.

The Mother Elizabeth came from Yorkshire originally:
Could they have gone back to Yorkshire.
You have Beasley at the address you have!
What do you think?

Seems to fit with George Beasley and child Rosina who married a Mahoney?
When you get back let me know what you think of this Line?

Janice xx

I can see where the Beasley is all connected, however, Margarets maiden name was Mahoney, not her married name, so cannot work out what Daniel Mahoney would be to Margaret. Are you suggesting Daniel married Rosina and they had a child Margaret?
Thanks for all the research by the way!
Lorraine

Yes, Margaret Mahoney born with Mother Maiden Name Beasley!
Born September Quarter 1923 in Poplar, which fits in with Daniel Mahoney marrying Rosina Beasley!
Right area for birth and reight time for Margaret Mahoney birth!
Parents of Rosina Beasley George & Elizabeth Beasley, George from Stewkley, Buckinghamshire & Elizabeth from Yorkshire.
Just ties in with George Beasley at the address!
Then Elizabeth Beasley death in Burnley, which could be the Mother of Rosina, Grandmother of Margaret Mahoney.
Also thinking of Buckinghamshire in relation to where Your Father was born, and wondering if there is a connection/reason for Margaret going to that area to have her baby?
Maybe relatives there too?
Janice xx

Reigate, Surrey & Stewkley, Buckinghamshire are only about 40 miles apart and everyone seemed to move around then to find work etc.
Janice

Marriage of Elizabeth T Jacques to George Beasley took place in 1888, these are the PARENTS of ROSINA BEASLEY who married Daniel MAHONEY, possible Parents of Margaret Mahoney 1923?
Checked for Jacques in Barnsley and there are Families of that name in that area?
Elizabeth T Jacques is given as Elizabeth Thornton Jacques on Marriage in 1888, but not found birth for her yet?
Still looking as she is said to come from Yorkshire, Kerby Malzend?
Janice xx
Still wondering though if Margaret Mahoney would be so young when she had you Dad?
Possible I know?

Do you think I should order the birth certificate of the Margaret Mahoney from Poplar and see if the parents are listed as Daniel and Rosina?
