Hi Jamb,

Thanks, I know they were married in 1876, but thought it was at Wigan register office. Yes, she did die in 1905 aged 52. He died in Bolton (I think it must have been a pit accident) in 1902 aged 57.

He had come to Wigan from Ireland (Dublin, Meath, Maynooth, Co' Kildare, Curggh are all places I was told as a child), aged 25 in 1821 and lodged in Rupert St, Wigan.

Her/Mary's maiden name was Dempsey. They had 6 children 5 survived. They were Elizabeth, PARTICK (my grandfather), John (died in my earlier mail I may have refereed to him as James), Thomas (Tucker Moore/Jack Demseys father), Mary and James.

Are you part of the same family or just someone who likes genealogy?

I wished I had asked my mother more when she was alive. I know she was still in touch, with both the Moores and Dempeys.

I am still in touch with my cousins (Moore), but they know little about that side of the family. I really want to find out where in Ireland they were from and who their parents were.

Thank you for all your help, very much appreciated.

Helen
