Mary Felton, Daughter, RC, Cannot read, age 11 months, Not married, born Cork City;

1911 census of Ireland, Lizzie Felton, Wife, could read and write, aged 34, married 12 years, children born alive to present marriage 6, children still living 4, born Cork City.
Therefore two children must have died between their marriage 1899 and the census 1911. (Most likely 1901, 1903, 1905-1907.)
Lizzie Clothier went to Boston USA with the rest of the family after James Felton's death.
Harry Felton arrived/emmigrated to the USA first 1925, saved up some money then sent for Norah who arrived 1926. Then they put the money together to sponsor Lizzie, Julia(1926) & James to come over in 1928, to Boston. They lived first in Boston and then NY
US Pax manifests show that Elizabeth William and James were manifested for the 30th October 1927 departure of the SS Samaria but never departed. Lizzie and Jimmy subsequently left on 1 January 1928 on the SS Laconia without William.
