Mary Ann Smyth & Rose Ann Smyth (Fermanagh)

FermanaghAghalurcher (Fermanagh)

Im trying to determine what happened to the daughters of my x2 great grannies sister Mary Ann & Rose Ann Smyth b. 1876 & 1879 in Killyrover Fermanagh.

Daughters of Thomas Smyth & Catherine Cassidy.

I have found them both on the 1901 census then nothing.

If possible im trying to find out who they both married & any offspring

Im thinking Catherine died prior to 1901 as she doesnt appear on the census

Thank you

Hi Nathaniel,

This looks like the marriage record for Mary (though her second name is Ellen not Ann) from www.rootsireland.ie/:
Date of Marriage:22-Nov-1904
Parish / District:ENNISKILLEN
County:FERMANAGH
Husband Thomas Swift Address:Liverpool Occupation:MERCHANT  Age 22 Status:Bachelor (Previously unmarried)
Wife: Mary EllenSmyth Killyrover FARMERS DAUGHTER Age:22 Spinster (Previously unmarried)
Husband's Father :John Swift FARMER
Wife's Father ThomasSmyth FARMER
Witness 1 Richard Collins
Witness 2 Sarah FrancesNaan
Notes:

ENNISKILLEN R. C. CHAPEL, PARISH OF ENNISKILLEN. AGES GIVEN AS FULL
OVER 21.

I couldn't find one for Rose or a death record for Catherine.

I also tried geni.nidirect.gov.uk; you might like to double check there. There are a few marriages for Rose but none in Fermanagh & it was customary for the bride to marry in her home town. However if she met her husband while working away this could change. You are only charged if you order a certificate I think.

Hi Nathaniel,

there is a death record for a Rose Smyth aged 2 in 1881 attached but since you found your Rose in the 1901 census I doubt it is much use.

Im thinking this Rose is the right one
