bullet Sources of information or noted events in her life were:

• General Comment. Her first names are Maria Catherine although in one census her name is listed as Mary. The death index and will is very clearly Maria Catherine.

It took a while to locate her surname. It appears in the 1901 census where she is listed as Maria C. Toler (sister of the head of house). The head of the house is unlisted but his wife is Sophia Knopp or Sophia Knapp born about 1837 in Ireland.
A search for Sophia Knapp shows the name to be Knapp as Sophia Knapp is in the 1891 census in the same address 30 Hazlett St.

11 Sep 2011 I proved to my satisfaction that her name is not Knapp. She is related to Knapp family by marriage. Her sister Sophia married Charles Barett Knapp. Her maiden name is Macdonell. See the Knapp family tree as constructed by RAB.

Maria married someone Maj. Charles Henry Toller, son of Edward Toller and Margaret Edington, before 1859 in St. Stephen, Dublin, Dublin, Ireland. (Maj. Charles Henry Toller was born on 7 Aug 1826 in London, London, England, christened on 14 Dec 1826 in Paul's Wharf, London, England and died on 14 Mar 1890 in Ilfracombe, Devon, England.)

There will inevitably be errors and omissions and the whole purpose of creating this online record, is to invite feedback and corrections.
The data is specifically for non-commercial use and my clear intention is to build family records. The data may, therefore, not be used in any way for the purposes of financial gain.

Caveat:- Throughout the project UK GRO birth, marriage and death index data appears. The GRO data appears in Quarters. Q1 = January, February and March, Q2 = April, May, June , Q3 = July, August and September and Q4 = October, November and December. Similarly, Mar Q = January, February and March, Jun Q = April, May, June , Sep Q = July, August and September and Dec Q = October, November and December. Where these dates occur, they represent the date of Registration of the event rather than the date of the actual event. Logically, registration occurs AFTER the event. In some cases this may be days or months or even years after the event. The important thing is that the event was recorded and a copy of the document of registration could be obtained if necessary. This also applies to South African NAAIRS records.

Similarly, the UK system is confusing to the uninitiated because registration districts can span several counties. Accordingly GRO locations may not record the true location of the event. They do record where the record is actually kept or recorded.

Caveat #2:- I have used URL's throughout the website as sources. The URLs are often from paid subscription sites so you may not be able to access them without an account. Inevitably there are broken URL's. I have been to every URL recorded here and at the time they were operational. In this regard, the Ancestry24 records are a problem. There are numerous references in the South African data citing Ancestry24 records. Unfortunately Ancestry24 has closed down and these records are no longer available on line.

The early South African records on this site would not have been as good as they are without the work done by Delia Robertson. Where there are website addresses containing http://www.e-family.co.za... I record the citation should read Robertson, Delia. The First Fifty Years Project.
