Biography

James passed away 11 February 1896 age 77 at Cornavarrow. He was a widower. Informed by james Morris, son, Cornavarrow. ^[1]

Research Notes

Linked daughter Mary's marriage 1877 names father as "alive". Linked daughter Catherine's marriage notice says youngest daughter of James.

There is also an 1896 marriage Mary Anne Morris of Dooish, dau of James Morris, to James Gallagher of Magharenny, son of Thomas. ^[2] Can't be this profile's daughter as he already has a Mary.

There is another couple James Morris + Bridget of same townland, 1911 census. They were from Leganvy and Drumrawn respectively, marrying in 1865. ^[3]

So the list of children to this profile are likely NOT children of that couple because of being born befoure that couple married.
