I can't find a death registration for her, though!

Catharine Quigley, Oct-Dec 1883 Liverpool age 60 vol 8b p 71.

I usually search on FreeBMD and just put the first name as Cath to allow for either spelling.

Great, thanks Kate. I tried GRO and then FreeBMD, but forgot to put a wild card for Catherine.

That's a good possibility for the death of Catherine Quigley - I may order the certificate anyway, based on that. Thank you ever so much both.

Murphy, please let us know how you get on. It'd be interesting to know, especially the informant's name.

Yes of course, I will. It will be interesting (if it is my Catherine) as her husband John had died in 1873 in Birkenhead, when the informant was his son Arthur. So to die and be buried in Liverpool in 1883 seems a bit odd - unless one of the other children were living there at the time of John's death, which is a possibility.

I just noticed that there is something written at right-angles to the entries for John and Margaret Quigley in the Liverpool Catholic Baptism Registers.....but I can't quite read what it says ! I think it could be Latin for twins ?!! It appears to say 'gemilli' - and the Latin for twins is 'geminos' !

Well spotted, Murphy. Yes, that confirms they were twins. I wonder what happened to John. I got results for a John Quigley born 1855 in the USA but as I don't have world-wide subscriptions I can follow it up.

It's best to order through the GRO

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/c...xes_search.asp

and to save costs you can buy a PDF for a lower price than a certificate. Certificates are £11, PDFs are £7.
