Joonie- 'Bax' could possibly be a shortened 'Backs', which is a parish in County Mayo? As far as I can make out it includes Knockmore and Rathduff.

EDIT: The 1911 census states Catherine married in 1869. This looks like the marriage: Catherine Murphy married John Dean in Ireland 1869. There are two entries for them on RootsIreland, the second also gives mother's names:

04-Jan-1869
Parish / District: KILMOREMOY DISTRICT County: Co. Mayo
Name: John Deane address: Ballina Occ: Servant, Age: over 21
Spouse: Kate Murphy address: Ballina Occ: SP, Age: over 21
Denomination: Roman Catholic
Husband's Father: Pat Deane, Occ: Farmer
Wife's father: Michael Murphy, Occ: Farmer
Witnesses: John Nalley Catherine Lynskey
Notes: MARRIED IN BALLINA CHURCH BY HENRY HEWSON C.C.
COUPLE OR SPONSORS COULD NOT WRITE

04-Feb-1869
Parish / District: KILMOREMOY/BALLINA County: Co. Mayo
Name: John Deane, Address: Ballina
Spouse: Catherine Murphy, Address: Ballina
Denomination: Roman Catholic
Husband's Father: Patrick Deane
Wife's Father: Michael Murphy
Husband's Mother: Mary Deane

Joseph's mother in the 1911 English census

Name: Catherine Dean
Age in 1911: 58
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1853
Relation to Head: Head
Gender: Female
Birth Place: Bax, Mayo, Ireland


do you know what 'Bax' is? that's what it looks like on the image


there were 5 Catherine Murphys aged 16-18 in county Mayo in the 1901 Irish census (plus 7 Kates and 3 Katies)

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

1901-1903 there 3 Catherine Murphys and a few dozen Caths, Kaths, Katherines, Kates and Katies with ages showing born 1881-1883 who immigrated to the US almost all departing from Ireland

I'm curious about Bax :-)

on the 1920 census, Charles Tasker born c1871 in Pennsylvania was married to Mary born c1880 in Ireland

so the marriage would have been in Pennsylvania ... she could have been a second wife, but she doesn't seem to be Rosie the mother of the Frank born in 1900 in PA

since there is a daugher Mary Perry aged 17 in the household, it does seem likely that Mary was the second wife of Charles, and Mary Perry is her daughter

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JV8F-8WG

Name: Tasker
Spouse's Name: Mary Perry
Event Year: 1909
License Number: 235950
Image Number: 00168 , Digital Folder Number: 4141908

So Mary Perry married Mr Tasker (no given name shown) 1909 Philadelphia
... this would be Charles Tasker's second marriage, to the Mary in the 1920 census

so all the children in 1920 but Frank are Mary's, from Charles Tasker's second marriage, which was in 1909 to Mary Perry

Frank Tasker is still with mother (stepmother) Mary in 1930:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XHZR-2TY

they now have a widowed Kate McCarthy born c1855 (aged 75) in the Irish Free State as border in the household


but unless there is some family connection between Charles Tasker or his first wife Rosie or his second wife Mary Perry and your Joseph Ambrose Dean ........ :-)

as far as Catherine Murphy, it isn't an uncommon Irish name ... this one was 10 years older than Joseph ... born c1882 and immigrated to the US in 1902

she could have been a cousin on his mother's side perhaps but that would be about the closest possible relationship

Please could I ask another favour. The 1920 US census states that Mary Tasker was born in Ireland. I would like to know if there is a marriage with her Maiden name.

Barbara

Barbara Report 26 Sep 2014 20:46

Thank you all for the info.

Ann that census has thrown up something interesting. Catherine Murphy born in Ireland. Joseph's Mother was originally a Catherine Murphy from Ireland so I am
now wondering if the one in the US is a relation.

Thanks again to you all you amaze me how quickly you find the information

and Gritty has sent Barbara both the WWI and the WWII draft registration cards


Ann ... have you had any more luck then me finding Joseph in 1930 or 1940??

he had to be there, one would think, since he registered for the draft in 1942!
