• Notes

  Bridget, Frances and Jane were baptised together on 30 Oct 1831. Subsequent declarations of age in censuses make it seem unlikely they were triplets. Bridget may have been born around 1829 if her age at marriage (27) is correct. Some census data could make it as early as 1827. The birth of Joseph has been randomly assigned to Bridget. He may be the son of any of Bridget's sisters. Bridget was living next door to her mother in Barker Street at the 1861 census.
