ChatGPT states Doris Evylin McMahon aged 18 was found dead on 21st June 1934, beaten and strangled. No one was charged or convicted of the murder and it remains unsolved.

I think that's incorrect, her name was Teresa Doris McMahon according to the inquest details.

As told off my nan, she believes it was Mary who was murdered and date was wrong and also they lived at number 1 because she lived at 1A not them.
