Spiddal is in the Galway registration district and I checked the civil death index records and did not find a Bridget Cannon death index record in Galway registation district from 1899-1901. What was her approximate year of birth and what was her husband's name?

Hi thankyou for your reply I do have a date of birth for Bridget ,I had a guess at the date she died as her son Edward Conniss was released from the Christian Brothers Latterfrack in 1899 back to her, and he is living with his stepfather Martin Cannon on the 1901 census so i have assumed she died around that time I have not found anything of her after 1899

I finally found the family in the 1901 census. They has Martin as Mortin which prevented me from pulling up the record. At that time they were in the Clifden registration district so I searched for a death index record in that district with no success.

Hi Roger thankyou again for looking for me .I have had a guess as to when Bridget died She is difficult to find just pops up now and then . Her son was sent back to her in 1899 after he left Latterfrack it states this on the records i have for him leaving there then I have been unable to find anything on her , Her children are then with Martin recorded as their stepfather so I assumed she had married him but unable to find a record of the marriage and that she had died by 1901 .
Thankyou again Lynda
