Was Mary's birth name McManus?

Or was she married to one of your uncles?

It's important that you give clear info as far as is possible...........

sorry about previous replies. i m relatively new to research ioften press the wrong buttons! yes my aunt mary was born mcmanus she was the eldest of three until recently i was led to believe my grandad joseph was an orphan and had no siblings. as you can imagine it was quite a shock to find all of these new people. i only live about 60 miles from middlesborough .i thought iwas the last one to carry the family name as my brother has no kids and i have only a daughter now i want to meet surviving family members if only in respect for my father jimmy mcmanus who died when i was 4 . again apologies and many many thanks.
