Martha Morris 1841-1925
Born Dublin to William Morris - from her m.c.
No Ancestry tree with her parents
Born Dublin , but a sister, Elizabeth, was born London in 1849 ( Sep 1848 or Sep 1849), so probably arrived in England by 8 years old; but maybe her parents were just in London for a short while and returned to Ireland . Buying these certificates(one at a time) could prove her parents if only one of them had a father William)
1841. A Martha Morris, born 3/4/1841, was baptised 20/4/1841 in St Mary's Dublin. Parents George, cabinet maker, & Eliza Morris. Address 14 Granby Street - image available on irishgenealogy.ie BUT, her m.c 1867 states William Morris as her father!

1912. Her daughter, Mary Isabella Peatfield, marries Henry J Gazdar
1913. Her husband, Thomas Peatfield, 73, dies Salford Dec 1913 .No probate
1914. Her grandson John Gazdar was born 12/1/1914 at . 211 Great Cheetham Street Higher Broughton The address is that of his Peatfield grandparents so Martha is obviously still living here
1921. Electoral Roll gives her at 391 Bury New Road, Prestwich, alongside son in law Henry Gazdar, so seems that her daughter and family are in the same house -FMP
Martha Peatfield with her grandchildren: Mary/Mollie on the left, Emilie to her right, John in front of her ~ 1920 perhaps
1925.Martha Peatfield, 84, of 391 Bury New Road, dies 8/1/1925 Manchester N Mar 1925 . Probate, to Joseph David Hughes,bookseller & publisher, of £313- I wonder if he a son in law - cannot find a suitable marriage!, but feel he must be a relation.
