[DaveHam9]

I've searched again today and can't find a death for John or Charlotte Lightbody that fits.

 

[DaveHam9]

Mary ended up in Scotland.

I did search in Ireland for her parent's deaths. Conclusion: they died 1858 - 1864 ??

He could be the grandfather, ie father of James (father of Charlotte) and of John (father of Mary).

It is Ellie.

I'm not sure what we have with that RC marriage.

John aged 98 could be father of James (father of Charlotte) and of John (father of Mary).

Perhaps Mary Lightbody's parents died 1858 - 1864.

 

[Elwyn]

The 1893 Charlotte's death is on-line free. The certificate shows she was married to Francis.
