Hi
Since posting my original message I have not really advanced with this person and I think
the record the Catholic Church has has a transcription error and the Canavan that has been
recorded as her name is more likley to be a place she lived. Subsequent primary source
evidence has consistently pointed to her name as walsh and her parents Michael Walsh and
Eliz Garratt. Yet the Church Archivist insists this is not correct - the birth
certificates of the other 13 children conflict with that So sorry I am not able to help
you advance on the Canavans. lyn
