Notes

040414 from Freereg.org.uk:

This record of baptism at St. Gabriel's came up in a search for people whose name sounded like Mowry in the transcript of baptisms on FreeReg.org.uk. Her parents were George and Elizabeth Moore (sic) and that should mean that they are not a part of the Morey/Mory/Morry/Mowry/Moary etc. family whose events are recorded in that church register at the time.

However, this is not the only Moore that showed up and at least one other is known to be a part of our family line so I think it is fair to say that there is a reasonable possibility that William, Catherine and Margaretha and their parents are a part of the family. I have added her father as a son of William tentatively as they are the only family of the Morry line in the village at that time.

Marriage Notes 




140518 from FindMyPast:

This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but it COULD be the William Sisk whose wife was Catherine and who was supposed to be the original member of the Sisk/Sesk family of Ferryland area. There are two versions on FindMyPast, one taken from the transcript and the other of the same original record at the National Library of Ireland. Interestingly, in both cases the transcript contains a spelling error in the surname of the bride but different in each case:

Notes
General:
270711: I only know the name of this person from Brenda Louise Smith. I do not know where she found it as it is not found in any of the other sources I have used for this family.

280711 this advice received from David Wells: "Now as to Catherine Sisk. She did exist but whether she is a family member or just "same name" is unknown. She appears in the early 1820's in a couple of court cases suing people. The only other known Sisk at the time was William. She could be his sister, wife, daughter, cousin or whatever."
