Norah SHAUGHNESSY

1882 - 1896  (14 years)

• Name	Norah SHAUGHNESSY
  Born	15 Feb 1882	Doddridge Co, WV   [1]
  	Findagrave reports the birth-death dates of Norah Shaughnessy, daughter of Patrick & Mariah Shaughnessy, as 15 July 1882 to 7 July 1896, age 13. Headstone inscription is not readable in photo. But Ramage's "Doddridge County Cemeteries," Vol 2, p. 73, (from readings in May 1982 and 1999) reports the dates for Norah Shaughnessy, daughter of P. & M. Shaughnessy, as 15 Feb 1882 to 7 June 1896, with age given as 4y [sic] 5m 23d. The death record for Nora Shaughnessy indicates a death date of 7 June 1896, age 14. Although there is no birth record for Nora, the 15 Feb 1882 would make her a twin of Patrick, born on that date according to his birth record. All things considered, it appears that the 15 Feb 1882 and 7 Jun 1896 dates are most likely correct.
