WOOLWICH BOARD OF GUARDIANS
THE WOMEN IN THE HOUSE
The special committee, consisting of Messrs. J.K. Paine, chairman, G. Champion, Colonel Travers, W.J. Graham, and J. Watts, who were appointed to examine the 97 women in the house under 60 years of age, met on Monday last, and reported the following as the result of their investigations... That the following appear to be removable... Honorah Keating, and three children.
- ↑ Four records have been found which give Honorah’s maiden name, being the baptism records of four of her children. All four give a different variation of the name:
- MacCrewen on John’s baptism in 1852 at Richmond;
- Curyan on Margaret’s baptism in 1856 at Woolwich;
- M’Craine on Julia’s baptism in 1859 at Woolwich; and
- Mulcreen on Catherine’s baptism in 1864 at London.
These are clearly all attempts to phonetically transcribe an Irish name that was unfamiliar to the people writing the records. The surname McCrohan is considered the most likely actual surname which was intended, being a name from County Kerry, which is where Honorah said she was from in the 1911 census.
Some online researchers give Honorah's maiden name as Creagh. However, no primary evidence supporting this has been found.
