I wonder if I can impose on you once again.
Can you shed any light on Mary Ann McMullin who married John Seabrook in Liverpool 1845.
She was born in Ireland abt 1821,not 1oo% sure but I think in Down, her father was Robert McMullin listed as a Farmer mother unknown.
Why I think Down in a later census her nephew is listed as Down.
This is another brick wall for many a year now.

Why I think Down in a later census her nephew is listed as Down.

Could you please tell us the name of the nephew and which census that was bert.

I found James McMullin, nephew, with Mary Seabrook in 1851 , but it just says Ireland for his birthplace. I'm guessing you are referring to the same nephew on a different census. I could spend time searching, but it would be so much easier if you could just tell us!!

I did find a James McMullen from Down on the 1891 census married to a Dorothy, but firstly, I don't know if this is the same James - he is five years older - and secondly, for all I know James McMullen isn't the person you are referring to!

Mothers weren't unknown, simply not named.

I think Bert was just saying that he doesn't know who Mary Ann's mother was, Shona.

There are eight men with the name Robert McMullen listed in Co Down in the Griffiths Valuation.

Do you know what religion Mary Ann was? There are several baptisms for Mary McMullen and variants at about the right time on the Irish Catholic baptisms collection on Ancestry. None to a Robert from what I can see.

Merry and others,
OOOPs I have made a mistake in telling you that James McMullin was from Down in the census .I must also mean The James that is now married in Liverpool.
So I have no idea what part of Ireland the McMullins came from.
As for her religion all I know is John Seabrook and Mary Ann McMullin where married in St Nicholas Parish church 1845 Liverpool and that it is C of E
