Notes for Bridgett Varley
Her birth year is known from the English censuses. Her maiden surname is known from the birth registration of her sons Martin and Michael.
No records found for her in Ireland.
______________________
In 1881 there is this census entry which could easily be her with two daughters at Hall Bank, Mobberley, Altrincham, Cheshire:
First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Sex Age Birth year Occupation Birth place
Bridget Moran Head W F 46 1835 Housekeeper Ireland
Mary Moran Daur S F 16 1865 Silk hand Macclesfield, Cheshire, England

Piece number 3500

Combined: 1881 ref: RG11, piece 3500, folio 124, p. 22
Of the two daughter, Mary has to be the one aged 6 in the 1871 census abd born in Macclesfield and Oney could well be the Ann aged 13 in the 1871 census. See their father’s Misc Notes for the details.

If the above 1881 census was indeed her, she was alive in 1881.
Then, having been a widow in 1881, there is this remarkable entry possibly for her in 1991 at Navigation Road, Burslem Cobridge, Wolstanton, Staffordshire:
First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Sex Age Birth year Occupation Birth place
Michael Moran Head M M 57 1834 House painter Macclesfield, Cheshire
Bridget Moran Wife M F 56 1835 - Ireland
Maggie Moran Gdau S F 17 1874 Dressmaker Burslem, Staffordshire

Piece number 2164

Combined: 1891 ref: RG12, piece 2164, folio 7, p. 8
My thought, from his birth place, is that this is a second husband.
I have not worked out where her grand-dau Maggie came from.
For all these questions, see hte Misc Notes for her husband.
