Yes James was son of Mary's Daughter Mary Ann yes she was unmarried not uncommon amongst working class back then ! Reg Mary she was with Joseph Emery over 30 yrs until his Death don't know why they didn't Marry but I know she married a James Holmes in 1835 can find no trace of him at all !

James was indeed son of Mary Ann she did later Marry As for Mary and Joseph Emery assuming Mary hadn't Divorced or been told her husband James had died didn't Marry Joseph he was my gg Grandfather in all but name and they were together over 30 yrs till his Death in1884 i can find no information at all regarding James Holmes other than his marriage to Mary in 1835 maybe he was mistreating her and she left him !?

Looking through the Johngrenham list of parish records it does look as though you are out of luck there

hi
on the parish register the D for dolery looks to me like a C and could say Colery

or Calery

If you mean the 1808 baptism (Calery) and the 1806 marriage (Dolery), it's probably how the transcriber interpreted the handwriting of the parish clerk.

Looking at the image of the marriage record - it's hard to read the handwriting, but it looks like Colery to me.

On the baptism record it also looks like Colery to me.

No point in looking for info on GR.

Family search no longer holds pre-civil registration info for Ireland

Looks like safc has found what your 'genealogist' failed to achieve

19 baptisms for the name in time-scale on Ancestry - NONE in Co. Roscommon

Some info simply isn't available -especially for Ireland

ErikaH Report 29 Aug 2020 14:33

Joseph Emery Head - Male 54 1817 - Staffordshire, England
Mary Holmes Living As Wife - Female 62 1809 - Ireland
Mary Ann Holmes Daughter - Female 23 1848 - Staffordshire, England
William Holmes Son - Male 20 1851 - Staffordshire, England
Thomas Holmes Son - Male 18 1853 - Staffordshire, England
James Holmes Son - Male 2 1869 - Staffordshire, England

A shame they didn't marry - might have got a father's name - if she knew it, of course.

Some imaginative recording on the census - James certainly couldn't have been her son.. Most likely Mary Ann's child

EDITED

HOLMES, JAMES - No MMN given, therefore illegitimate

Is the age at death consistent with censuses?

You may have to accept that the info simply isn't availalble - vast amounts of Irish records were destroyed at various times

Where did she marry?

Midlands Report 29 Aug 2020 13:30

On her Death cert it's 83 it's Birth I'm unsure of as age on death cert may be inaccurate later information I found out incorrect age on cert she was born 1808 so in 1897 she was 89
