  Notities over Bridget (Bea) Carr

  BIRTH:
  - Identified as Bea Carr, sister of Mary Ann Carr, by Catherine Dolan Simon. Numerous records point to Bridget as her legal first name. Records diverge on the birth date for Bridget, but the most accurate date, based on the baptismal record (see below for discussion), is late February 1872.
  - Full date of 5 March 1871 given in an Irish Civil Registration record indexed in three places in "Ireland Births and Baptisms, 1620-1881," online at www.familysearch.org. Named as Bridget Car, with parents Thomas Car and Ann McGaragle. Place of birth given as Pettigo, Donegal, Ireland. The various index entries in this database are described as follows:
  o Indexing project (batch) number: C70144-2; System origin: Ireland-VR; Source film number: 255811
  o Indexing project (batch) number: C01405-7; System origin: Ireland-EASy; Source film number: 255811; Reference number: v 2-1 p 59
  o Indexing project (batch) number: C01237-6; System origin: Ireland-ODM; Source film number: 255841
  - Examination of the source record for the above three entries in "Ireland Births and Baptisms, 1620-1881" confirms the birth date of 5 March 1871, the identity of parents, and gives the locality of birth as Ballymcavany, Pettigo, County Donegal, Ireland. Entry found in Ireland Register of Births, 1871, volume 2-1, page 59, entry no. 125. FHL Microfilm No. 255811.
  - Baptismal record consistent with month given for birth (February, but year given as 1872) in 1900 U.S. Census for Delaware, New Castle County, E.D. 4, Sheet 16A, Line 26. Place of birth given as Ireland. Enumerated as Bridget Carr in household of her uncle, Bernard Carr in Wilmington, Delaware.
  - Year of birth would be 1872-1873, according to age (34 years) in Register of Marriages for the City of Wilmington, 1903-1907, page 248, line 12. Online in Delaware, Wilmington Vital Records, 1847-1954, Marriages, 1903-1907 on www.familysearch.org. Groom named as Joseph P. Gorman and bride named as Bridget Carr. Place of birth given as Ireland. Parents named as Thomas and Ann Carr.
  - Year of birth would be 1873-1874, according to age (36 years) in 1910 U.S. Census for Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, E.D. 998, Sheet 11B, Line 74. Place of birth given as Ireland. Enumerated as Bridget Gorman, with husband Joseph P. Gorman, and son Joseph Gorman.
  - Date of birth given as 1 March 1872 in Pennsylvania Death Certificate No. 22308, available from ancestry.com. Place of birth given as Ireland. Father's name was given as Thomas, with no last name, and mother's maiden name was given as Carr. This information is somewhat consistent with her known parents (her father was Thomas Carr) and appears to reflect incomplete information provided to the register by the informant.
  
  BAPTISM:
  Full date of 21 February 1871 given for the baptism of Bridget, daughter of Thomas Kerr and Anne McGargle (McGarrigle), in the 1851-1877 Baptismal Registry for the Parish of Carn, Pettigo-Belleek, transcribed by John Cunningham and Vynette Sage, and posted as an Excel spreadsheet (1851-1877_Baptisms,Pettigo(Fathers,alphabetical))(J.Cunningham_&_V._Sage).xls) at www.fermanagh-gold.com. Witnesses were Thomas and Bridget McKane. This record suggests an actual birth date in February 1871 -- it is not unknown for Irish Baptismal Registers to be more accurate than the civil registration, which required a trip to and interaction with local registrars, and sometimes occurred several days after the birth.
  
  IMMIGRATION:
  - 1900 U.S. Census gives year of immigration as 1893.
  - A Bridget Carr, age 20, born in Ireland and resident of Donegal, traveling to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is listed as a passenger on the S.S. Circassia, traveling from Londonderry to New York, arriving on 11 September 1893. This is the most likely arrival record for her. Record available in New York Passenger Arrivals database on www.ancestry.com.
  - 1910 U.S. Census gives year of immigration as 1884. It seems unlikely that she immigrated to the United States at age 11, though.
  
  OCCUPATION:
  Domestic, Hotel Walton, Philadelphia (1918 Pennsylvania Death Certificate). The Hotel Walton stood at Broad and Locust Streets.
  
  ADDRESSES:
  Malta House, NE cor[ner] E Water and King, Wilmington, Delaware (Gopsill's Wilmington Directory, 1898, p. 148; Wilmington City Directory and Gazetteer, 1899, p. 181; Wilmington City Directory and Business Gazetteer, 1900, p. 192)
  4 South King Street (adjacent to entry for a residence on Water Street), Wilmington, Delaware (1900 U.S. Census)
  119 Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware (Wilmington City Directory and Business Gazetteer: 1903, p. 192; 1904, p. 199; 1905, p. 197)
  Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware (1907 Wilmington Marriage Register Record)
  North Braddock, Pennsylvania (1914 Pennsylvania Death Certificate for her husband, Joseph Gorman)
  1602 Master Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (1918 Pennsylvania Death Certificate). Note that this was only a few blocks from Girard College, where her son was resident in the 1920 U.S. Census.
  
  DEATH:
  Full date of death given as 13 February 1918 in Pennsylvania Death Certificate No. 22308 (1918). Died in the annex to the Hotel Walton, Philadelphia (located at Broad and Locust Streets). Cause of death was cirrhosis of the liver. Informant was Barney Carr, 1926 Atlantic Avenue, Philadelphia. This is likely her brother, Bernard Carr, who was resident in Philadelphia at the time.
  Consistent with other evidence that she died between the 1910 and 1920 U.S. Censuses, since her son, enumerated with both parents in the 1910 Census, is enumerated in an orphanage in the 1920 Census.
  
  BURIAL:
  Full date given as 16 February 1918 in Pennsylvania Death Certificate. Buried in Holy Cross Cemetery, Yeadon, Pennsylvania.
  Full date of burial given as 15 February 1918 in cemetery records of Holy Cross Cemetery, Yeadon, Pennsylvania. (It is not unusual for Holy Cross records to be off by one day, as the register date sometimes reflected when the first contact was made with the cemetery.) Buried in Section 7, Range 13, Lot 9, owned by Catharine McGillin, along with her cousin, Joseph A. McGillin.
