Bridget Henry was born in 1823 according to her death certificate and 1816 according to her burial.
She married Michael Carroll, 2nd Rifle Brigade, in 1838 in Greenwich. Her parents were Robert and Brigid Henry from Ireland on the Catholic records. The marriage certificate records her father as Robert Henry, a farmer.
Her children were: Mary 1839 Woolwich, Margaret (c 1845 Dover), John 1844 Guernsey, Jane 1846 Guernsey, Frances 1851 at sea on the Pyrenees, William 1853 Fremantle, George 1854 Fremantle (d1854), Elizabeth 1856 Fremantle and Frederick 1858 Fremantle. (possibly a Samuel?)
Michael was pensioned in Aug 1846 but returned to Guernsey where they remained until the end of May 1848 when they went to Edenderry, Kings County. From Frances' baptism, this was the parish of Michael's parents. Bridget's were said to be from Salestown, Co Dublin.
I can't find a Salestown in Dublin - but there is one in Meath?
