| Notes |
- Margo (Marguerite) Leone Celestine McGINTY was at one time thought to have been a Catholic Sister (order unknown).
Source: The will of Joseph McGINTY, her father, who says that she was in the Abbotsford convent at the time of the preparation of his will. The headstone only records the parents details. It is now believed that this was incorrect and she might have been resident at the convent for reasons other than joining of an order.
In 1900 her husband of four years William O'SHEA petitioned for divorce from Marguerite on the grounds of her adultery with Charles JOHNSTON. Both the respondent and the co-respondent had evidently been attendants at the Yarra Bend Lunatic Asylum. Marguerite had given birth to a son (William Thomas) by Charles JOHNSTON on 4 November 1898 at the Women's Hospital, Madelaine St., Carlton, VIC. He was registered as a son of her estranged husband, William O'SHEA.
Some of the divorce papers in this case were prepared by a Gustave LACHAL, clerk to McInerny and McInerney, Solicitors.
----
At the time of her death she was known as Margaret Leona (surname:) CELESTINE although she was buried as Margaret L.C. STEVENS at the Melbourne General Cemetery, Carlton VIC.
