John DONOGHUE
Set As Default Person -
Name John DONOGHUE Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1802 Co. Cork, Ireland
- From the 1851 census where shown as aged 46, 1861 where shown as aged 58, 1871 aged 68, dth registered with age given as 75 (i.e. if born late 1802 then 1861, 71 and death cert could all be correct but most accurate earlier in life and it's the earliest that differs? Enumeratior error?)
1841-1861 censuses just show birthplace as Ireland but 1871 has Cork.
Gender Male Occupation From 1841 to 1871 Poplar, Middlesex, England
Dock labourer - Only the 1861 census shows John as a dock labourer, the 1841, 51 and 71 censuses just show labourer but given where the family were living it seems likely he always worked at the docks.
Died Dec Q 1878 Poplar Reg Dist, Middlesex, England
- GRO ref: DONOGHUE, John aged 75, q4 1878 Poplar RD 1c 509
John was in the 1871 census but Martha was a widow by 1881 so I think this was his death - and the age is right.

Family Martha HYDE, bap. 22 Apr 1804, St. Leonard’s Church, Deal, Kent, England
, d. Mar Q 1887, Poplar Reg Dist, Middlesex, England
(Age ~ 82 years) Married Abt Dec 1833 All Saints’ Church, Poplar, Middlesex, England
- * Marriage assumed from banns, and because they subsequently lived as man and wife *
Date an estimate based on date of banns; place based on banns which showed both were of this parish.
However, there seems to be no entry for this marriage in the marriage register (not just from index, but browsed the register, checked from 15th Dec 1833, the date of the last reading to end of the following March). Maybe there was an obstacle and they couldn't, or they just didn't bother (for some reason Martha's brother John did not marry his 'wife') or (I think most likely) perhaps a marriage did follow the banns but the priest forgot to enter it in the register. There was often more than one on a given day at this church, so forgetting one would probably not have been difficult.
Whoever in the family provided the census data seems to have been very approximate - ages of children seem quite variable. I have found some birth registration refs that could be theirs, haven't checked censuses for other children with the same name / born Poplar RD.
