Nicola Report 8 Apr 2016 18:36

I am looking for information on my 2x gr grandmother Roseanna Monahan. I know she was born in Dublin, Dublin Ireland in either 1875 or 1876. She married a George Stroud in 1899 Hungerford Berkshire. I would like to find out who her parents are and if possible when she came to England but any information would be helpful.

If you obtain her marriage certificate it should give her Father's name and occupation which might help trace her (if she knew her Father). Spell the names as they appear.

On her marriage certificate there is no father listed. On the marriage certificate her surname is Momaham but on one of the childrens birth certificates it says Monaham.

Nicola.....

Have you seen this ? Cant find any other Stroud / Monahan (variations) in the Hungerford area other than what you already have.
Maybe worthwhile checking it out...

Where were George and Rosanna married Church/Register Office..?

There is this marriage for a Rosanna Stroud in Newbury in 1914

Marriages Mar 1914 (>99%)

Rolfe William Stroud Newbury 2c 473
Stroud Rosanna Rolfe Newbury 2c 473


and this birth:

Births Sep 1915 (>99%)

Rolfe William A Mother's maiden name Monahan Hungerford 2c 472

If this is your Rosanna remarrying then this looks like her death reg in 1936


Deaths Mar 1936
Rolfe Rosanna aged 58 Hungerford 2c 397


which would make her born nearer 1878 of course that's assuming that the person giving the details for the death knew her birth date

As there was no father listed on the marriage certificate I am guessing that she was illegitimate.
