ℹ Fits Margaret WardThe year agrees with the GEDCOM birth of 1843 and with her age of 56 on her death entry in October 1899. The register spells the surname Cusack, where the GEDCOM has Cusick.
⚠ Not provenNo husband is named, and Margaret Cusack is not a rare name. It is the likeliest match, and the first record that puts her in Co Cavan. A marriage of Philip Ward and Margaret Cusack (about 1860 to 1863) would tie it down.
ℹ Her parents addedJohn Cusack and Biddy (Bridget) Lynch are in the tree as her parents. The 2026 export of the Ancestry tree already had them.
