  • Name Margaret Jennings 
    Born Bef 21 Mar 1875  Mountdelvin, Kiltullagh, Roscommon, Ireland Find all individuals with events at this location 
    • All of the Jennings children were baptized before their births were registered. This is likely due to the informant's error (whether intentional or not). Margaret's birth record states she was born 31 August. This is incorrect. She was baptized 21 March, so she must have been born before that date. After coming to the United States, Margaret gave her birth date/age on various records. The information was never consistent; her birth year ranged from 1879 to 1883.
