The marriage to Timothy Duhigg but using her maiden name. Are you sure she was married before? Or did you mean Lavell was her first married name?

Tmothy junior was born before they married and I can't find his birth record. Are you certain he was born a Duhigg?

Just saying I can't see a birth for him anywhere. The name he married under doesn't prove his birth name unfortunately. Not saying you are wrong, might be me. However, the favt that they were born 4-9 years before the marriagemakes me suspicious.
Have you found the family together in 1871?

Sorry as you can see I am a novice at this only checked the 1891 census and they were altogether then.. I don't know much about Timothy Duhigg only that he was a journeyman and shoemaker from Limerick.Not too sure when he came over here

Looks like Alice Crabb married one of these 2:

Marriages Mar 1886 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CRABB Alice St.Saviour 1d 34
Dewy Edward St. Saviour 1d 34
THORN William St Saviour 1d 34

Mind you there's another Alice Crabb who married 1886 in Exeter.

Perhaps Ellen Lavell was their step mother and she married him when his first wife had died?

werzal

werzal Report 5 Feb 2011 20:00

Yes it's definitely Edward Dewy as I have that marriage cert.

brummiejan Report 5 Feb 2011 20:03

Madbull, would you please have a look for the births of the Duhigg children?

werzal

werzal Report 5 Feb 2011 20:03

Also on cert is father of Edward DEWY that states Edward Dewy senior .. bootmaker Journeyman from Limerick .so hence the confusion ..Timothy Duhigg became Edward Dewy perhaps the marriage of Ellen Lavell and Edward Dewy are recorded
