DEATHS
MORIARTY.-On 21st February, 1918, at the residence of her niece, Mrs. G. Campbell, 4 Exeter street, Deborah Moriarty, aged 84 years.

I don't have a copy of Deborah's death certificate so don't know who the informant was but mother as Ellen is probably an error. I don't read mother's name as 'Hayes' on the marriage certificate - crop attached.
