I have been emailed a discussion by Dr Perry who is researching the Irish Famine girls. In it you say Catherine had a child at 45 and Agnes Fitzgerald was present and perhaps she was the mother. She was not. Agnes was my great grandmother SHE WAS A MIDWIFE. So it is quite concievable she was present when her mother gave birth. Her married name was Anne Agnes DATE.
She had a daughter Vera who married Harold Higginbotham -they had a daughter Esme who is my mum (now dead). Vera and granny date were always ladies - wore hat and glove to go out and very strong catholics.
