  Narrative

When Thomas Rourke married Rose Farrell in 1878, he said he was a widower. Thomas might have married Mary Feran in 1846. A Mary Rourke died in Ballyneddan in 1877 who could be Mary Feran.

The only problem would be that Mary Feran was 10 to 15 years older than Thomas, if her age at death is correct. On the other hand, Deidre's transcription doesn't list any children in the marriage of Thomas Rourke and Mary Feran, so maybe she was 45+ when marrying.
