Well you ended up getting me intrigued and now I am the bearer of bad news..... Mary was Illegitimate.... born to Mary Redpath in Tranent East Lothian on October 14th 1878.... This is defo her as I took the place of her birth from the census return and when I couldnt find a Mary Murphy born 78/79 in Tranent I checked out Mary Redpath and up she came... Mary Banks Redpath. I have to go and sort the kids out but if you pm me your email addy I would be more than happy to send you the census and Mary's birth registration. Shaz x Oh yes a sister Maggie and Brother Hugh are on the census but they are older than Mary... all have the name Murphy. x |

On the IGI familysearch.org says that there was a Mary Redpath born 8 Nov 1855 in Tranent who died 24 Jan 1926 and married a Philip Murphy on 16 Mar 1883. Her parents were Mary Banks and George Redpath apparently. |

Hi Deb, Familysearch also has sister Rosina's parents listed as George Redpath and Mary Banks. There's a submitted entry for this too, but also an extracted entry. Liz |

Debs I have sent you the copies x So basically it seems that she was in some form of relationship with Philip and having his children long before they married. Shaz x |
