Title: looking for this place .These McClintons are in my familyplease help
Post by: emmess on Monday 15 May 06 15:36 BST (UK)
These McClintons are in my family
Agnes ( Bruce ) & William McClinton  moved to Maybole and then to Glasgow . I have been following them closely, mainly the male line, because the name keeps changing from McClinton , McClintock,  McLinton,  McLintock. --HORRENDOUS

Joseph Brown is a visitor  at Coral Glen Maybole in 1881
A William Brown ( 15yrs bakers apprentice ) is living with Agnes (Bruce) &William McClintock  & family at Earlston close in Dennistoun Glasgow –1901 census over two pages.

 Agnes  a younger daughter marries a JOHN BROWN at Kelvin in 1895. He died in 1902 & she then married  Thomas Irvine in 1904 in Govan. She is indexed as McClintock.  The father of John Brown ( on marriage cert) seems to be the visitor on 2nd  page of 1901 census

Sorry !
I made a mess of replying (as I thought) to a post from William 100, regarding  the Wigtownshire McClintons at Mark and Tannochrae farms. There is a connection with my  family.

William

From your previous posts this week, re Elizabeth McClintock (and variants), it did occur to me that maybe she had remarried following the death of Joseph Brown in 1893. She would have been relatively young still (31/2). There are a number of marriages showing on SP for an Elizabeth McClintock, mostly in Glasgow after 1893.

This may be why you haven't been able to find her death details if she is indexed by her maiden name and her second married name?

Regards.

Monica

elizabeth mcclinton did get re married
her husband joseph brown died in 13/02/1893 age 30
and she got re married on 04/12/1896 to peter mcpherson
but she got married under elizabeth mcclinton and spinster and age 28 she was age 29 when joseph died. but it is her as her father & mother are the same names. and in 1903 when her son william brown went into the army her name is on the inrolment papers at the top as elizabeth mcpherson but on william brown married in 1904 it has joseph brown and elizabeth brown m.s mcclinton. but she is re married at this time. so anyway i still cant find her death certificate. as you might know emmess is related to me throught the mcclinton who married the browns myside of the family (brown) did not know this till i started this

Hi
I am totally new to this kind of group but we are descended from McClintons of Wigtownshire turned into McClintocks in Ayrshire by 1900. William = Agnes Bruce is the brother of Richard Jolly McClinton - father was a Thomas McClinton. Richard married Maggie Fitzsimmons - her mother was a Caskie (McCaskie).
I never did find out what happened to Joseph Brown either but if I can help anyone by sharing the searches please let me know.
Also interested in the McDonald, McArthur, McKenzie families from Nairnshire pre 1900.

I thought I would share my McClintock line - there may be a connect somewhere. 

John McClintock b. 1807 Ireland
m. Margaret Armstrong b. 1811 Ireland d. 1869 Glasgow
Together they had two sons
1.  Robert b. 1835 Ireland
2. John b. 1841 Ireland d. 1896 Glasgow

I have Robert, John and mother Margaret  on the 1861 Barony Glasgow.

This is the last I have of Robert.

John McClintock married Christina Gordon b. 1846 d. 1890 Glasgow.
Together they had six children all born in Glasgow
1. James b. 1867
2. Margaret b. 1872
3. Christina b. 1874
4. Andrew b. 1878
5. Alexander b. 1883
6. William b. 1887 d. 1965 Glasgow (my great-grandfather).  He married Alexandrina Scanlan b. 1880 Glasgow and d. 1917 Glasgow. 
They had three sons William b. 1908, John b. 1911 and Alexander b. 1915 all Glasgow. 
William then remarried a Mary McGregor in 1929.

In the 1991 Glasgow census I have John with his two daughters Christina and Margaret.

The sons  Andrew, Alexander and William were found in Inverness with a Betsy McKenzie and they are listed as boarders. 

If any of this sounds familiar please contact me.  Many thanks,

Hi

It is frustrating that the census returns only give the birthplace as "Ireland" for many of our ancestors but having consulted the Griffiths Valuation site I can see that there were McClintons and McClintocks living in the same villages in Co. Antrim and Down.
I have no idea why Richard McClinton born in Wigtown in 1845 changed his name to McClintock by 1890 - his brother William's family also started to use the name McClintock by the end of the century. Descendants now tend to use "McLintock"

Richard's father Thomas McClinton was born in Ireland around 1803.  Some members had moved up as far as Glasgow by the early 1900s but our family were still living in Ayrshire (Cumnock/Kilmarnock) by 1920. I am finding it almost impossible to find out what became of the females after that.

Unfortunately I can not see any connection in our lines - at least not this side of the Irish Sea.

regards, Helen McClintock
