Kit Coleman's date of birth 1864 or 1856?

edit

The following is an extract from the website of the Canadian Government Library and Archives: "Kathleen Blake "Kit" Coleman's birthdate is usually listed as 1864, and her maiden name as Blake. It is, however, probable that she was born Catherine Ferguson in 1856 at the village of Castleblakeney, Ireland, to Patrick Ferguson and Mary Burke."

From Wikipedia: The 'Blakes' . . . [One of] "The Tribes of Galway (Treibheanna na Gaillimhe) . . . fourteen merchant families who dominated the political, commercial, and social life of the city of Galway in western Ireland between the mid-13th and late-19th centuries". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.101.27.37 (talk) 15:12, 9 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
