      Not with her parents in the 1841 census, but age shown as aged 12 in 1851; given how inconsistently the ages are given of the children in this family I think it quite possible she was not born until 1842 and they didn't given the name to two daughters.

    • * 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.

    • From PR entry (image on Ancestry, viewed 19 Oct 2019)
      Although shown as aged 20 when this Catharine would have only been 18, but not only does the entry name Catherine's father as John Donoghue, a Labourer but it also gives her residence at the time of marriage as 2 Union Place, Poplar. This is the house this Catharine's parents were living in at the time of the 1861 census, so I think it safe to conclude the marriage was of this Catharine.GRO ref: Donoghue, Catherine to Litson, Samuel q3 1860 Poplar RD 1c 1090
