Margaret married John Murphy and had eleven children. My Mother was the youngest child born before her Mother died of tuberculosis when she was 5 months old. My Mother was born with a TB tumor by her ear and had surgical procedures done to correct the tumor. Mom came down with TB again when she was about 14 years old and spent some time in a sanitorium for isolation and treatment.

NOTE--
Margaret Murphy - there is a separate record book of those buried in the poor ground and they confirmed that she was indeed buried there. Residence 9 Cinnamond Street Belfast. Area of ground = QE- 4-A There are 2 huge fields allocated to the poor ground. and on that morning there was no one to show us where this portion was. They said very common to be buried if death was due to TB - thought may have been an epidemic at that time ??
