I am trying to find my grandmother on my mothers side. She was Mary Miney, she had two sisters, Elizabeth and Nellie. She married Charles Lowe 12/7/1909 in Bath. There is no fathers name on hers or Elizabeths marriage certificate. Elizabeth married Charles Fenton in Bath in 1906. I thought there was an Irish connection but have had no luck. But today found there may be a Liverpool one, with her parents possibly Michael Miney and Elizabeth/Ellen McQueen
