Transcrition errors, On the Original it definiteley states "Married"

"Highest" must be a district of St Helens, thats what it looks like.Perhaps someone with local knowledge of St Helens will know, Ive Googled but cant find anything that looks close

Ireland was a part of The United Kingdom until the 1920s, so anyone born in Ireland would be classed as a British Subject.
Also Irish Regiments were a part of the British Army
