Marriage Notes 




Kevin Reddigan provided this additional piece of information in an email on 05/10/01. It seems likely that these are one and the same people despite the Surname spelling differences between the Gravestone and the marriage record. If so, then Kevin's belief that this was a second marriage for both would explain why the mother was identified as Bridget Kelly by Enid O'Brien but Bridget Gamburgh on the marriage record.

"Southern Shore Marriage Records from RC Basilica St.John's and other areas. Roman Catholic & Methodist

Powell, Robert - Ferryland - m. Gamburgh, Bridget - Not Stated - November 30, 1860 Patrick Marshall, Mary Power."
Notes
General:
There is a gravestone in Ferryland Catholic Cemetary that reads: "Erected by Robert Powls for his wife Bridget, died 21 December 1873;64 yrs. Also her mother Bridget Morry, died 20 January 1872; 106 yrs."

Enid O'Brien email 25/08/00:

"Re your email about the two Bridgets. I believe that the Bridget Morey buried in Ferryland, age 106, is not a Ferryland Morry at all. She was Bridget Kelly from Bonavista married to a Morey. She really died in Halifax but her daughter, Bridget, married to Robert Powls (died the following year 1873 in Ferryland). I read somewhere that Robert was a police constable stationed in Ferryland and probably put the two names on the headstone. Unfortunately, I can't find the reference for Robert being a police constable. I guess I didn't think it was important because I didn't feel it was the same Morrys. I am open on this but this is what I think."
