• Notes

  Catherine's birth is not recorded in the Lady's Island baptism register.   In 1866, Catherine attended the birth at Bunarge of her sister Mary’s child John Thomas Benedict Doyle.  The birth record named Catherine as Cate.   Catherine died on 9 June 1873 at the age of 36 at Bunarge.  Her death record describes her as a spinster, a farmer’s daughter. The informant was her brother Michael, who was present when Catherine died.    In the late 1990s, Gary Sinnott made a transcription while at Churchtown Cemetery: "Kate Sinnott of Bunarge who died 1878. also Eliza - Sister Nan [Mary] Francis who died 1876. Also William died 1878. Also John died 1880. Brothers and sisters."  The exact wording is uncertain.  All of this text is on one inscription.  It is possible that the year of Kate’s death was mis-transcribed, and was actually 1873.  It is unclear if she was buried at Churchtown – the headstone may have been just a memorial, as it is unlikely that Eliza (a nun in England) and William (who went to Australia with Edmund in 1867 but was in England in 1871) are buried at Churchtown.
