What we still don't know

  • [PRIVACY FLAG CORRECTED] This person was marked as possibly living, which suppressed everything about them. Nothing in their record refers to any year after 1868, so they cannot be alive: even somebody born in that year would be over a hundred and ten now. The flag was a default that had never been revisited, and it was hiding a nineteenth-century person as though they were a contemporary.
  • [LIKELY THE SAME WOMAN] `margaret-frances-reilly-leahey-1872` has been added from Ellen T. Reilly's memorial, which names a sister Margaret Frances Reilly Leahey, 1872-1956. This record — Margaret Reilly, wife of Francis John Leahey — is very probably her, which would mean two Reilly sisters married two Leahey brothers. They are not merged, because this record carries no dates to test the identification against.
