Hi there

My family history journey continues and this time I'm trying to track John Moses Campbell. We believe (read: think/hope/maybe) he married Jane Brown (29 Oct 1867 • Knockbride, Cootehill, Cavan, Ireland). She passed away the following year and John subsequently married Mary Fox (6 Jan 1873 • Shercock, County Cavan, Ireland).

I'm trying to confirm both these marriages and look for confirmation of John Moses' parents, and importantly I'm still trying to properly identify Mary and her family. We *think* her father was Thomas, born  C. 1814 • Kilcrossduff, Cavan, Ireland, but can't be certain, and am unsure about Mary's mother.

If anyone is able to help untangle this, I'd be enormously grateful.

  • Wow! Roger! 

    Thank you SO much! This is fantastic. :-) Really interesting that on the second marriage, Mary uses both Fox and Faux on the one certificate.

    Mary and John subsequently emigrated to Australia, arriving here in September 1881.

    Thank you again for your assistance with this piece of the puzzle.

    Cheers from Hobart.

    Amanda :-)
