I've gotten information and records from numerous sources over the years and don't
always have corresponding documentation. From what I have gathered...
Mary Quinn (b. abt 1851 in Ireland, possibly Mayo) married Thomas Cawley (b. abt 1832 in
Ireland) married in Leeds, Yorkshire in Jun 1865. First son John A. Cawley was born 13 Jun
1866 in Pollard's Yard, Leeds, West Riding Yorkshire. Second son Thomas was born in
1867 also in Pollard's Yard.
Thomas Cawley (the father) died 30 Sep 1867 in Pollard's Yard.
The next reference to Mary Cawley and her son John (there is no mention of her son Thomas)
is in the 1871 census where she is living with her parents Patrick Quin(n) and Ellen nee
Durkin in Clitheroe enumeration district 12 (page 33)
I suppose it is possible that the Thomas Cawley who died on 30 Sep 1867 was Mary's son
since I have no records.
I have never been to the UK so I have not had the opportunity to research or get any
certificates. If the marriage certificates give more information I would love to see them.
In the meantime I will try to do a little more digging.
