Hi Elizabeth,
Did a look up for you.
1882 Alfred Danby married Caroline McDonald in Sydney.
1908 Frank Danby married Lily McDonald in Sydney.
1955 Lily Danby died aged 64 years at Darlinghurst Sydney.

I will get back to you about Ann Danby.

The McDonald - O'Brien connection. There are 19 O'Briens as Grooms and McDonalds as Brides. There are 10 McDonald as Grooms and O'Briens as brides. Do you have Christian names for the O'Briens and McDonalds please.

Regards Patricia.

I am trying to find the link between the McDonald O'Brien and Danby families of Paddington NSW. Ann Danby was my grandmother's relative (possibly cousin). She worked in a pie shop near central railway station in the 1920-1930's
