    Her birth certificate (in the name Mary) lists parents Frank and Mary Wall.

    She had a brother Francis Joseph, born 13 Nov 1905. https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/1691047

    Searching for the family unit together is usually easier than searching for one person in isolation.

    I'm sorry, the info is correct. However, I put in the wrong date. I was looking for Mary/Marie McGowan in 1930. New York

    When she married, in 1935, her address was 251 Saratoga Ave. You can use Steve Morse's ED finder to locate that address in the 1930 census and try to find her that way.

    I used https://www.familysearch.org/search/all-collections/ and entered the info you and Áine had.

    Results: https://www.familysearch.org/search/all-collections/results/?q.motherSurname=Wall&q.motherGivenName=Mary&q.fatherSurname=McGowan&q.fatherGivenName=Frank&q.birthLikePlace=New%20York&q.surname=McGowan&q.givenName=Mary&q.anyDate.from=1930&q.birthLikeDate.from=1909&offset=0

    The third item in my list was for a Marie Mcgowan, born 1910 in New York, daughter of Frank and Mary, in Buffalo https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X7C6-LL8

    I looked at that family, @Maile L, but I don't think that is them. Mary Wall, mother of Marie Agnes McGowan, died in 1918, and Frank McGowan, Marie's father, died in 1923.

    Mary Wall McGowan's death: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WGL-GHF

    Frank's death: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2W5Y-Y5N

    In 1920, the 2 Franks, father and son, were living Frank's sister, Frances Loretta McGowan Collins, and her children, but Marie is not in the household. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MJTP-7GS

    Marie's brother Frank is living with their aunt, Frances McGowan Collins, in 1925. https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/2113931?mark=051420349664264949658652b143df321ece7cbddf8e199778c9b5f96fd2b83e

    In 1930, Frank is living with his cousin, Edward Collins, son of Frances McGowan Collins.

    I don't have Marie yet, but at least we know she is not with her brother.
