Title: McCluskey/Beveridge
Post by: Margaret Russell on Tuesday 18 March 08 16:59 GMT (UK)

Little is known of these grandparents, Helen beveridge who perhaps was born in Glasgow, and her husband, Andrew McCluskey who was born in Ireland
They were married in Stevenston Ayrshire in 1903.
the only known children are Nellie b @1908 in Paisley and Mary born 1910 in ayrshire.
Perhaps someone with Census Records for 1881 and 1891 may find either or both of these parents.

Hi Margaret

Elusive couple these! 

Have found an Helen F Beveridge on the 1891 census but her age is 42, so I think perhaps not yours? 

Visiting a family in Leamington, she is living on her own means and born Baldock Hertfordshire.

Hi Suzie - I dont think this is the Helen that I am looking for, but thanks for your efforts.  She was born in scotland, somewhere.

Hi,

If they married in Ayrshire in 1903 you will be able to get their marriage cert. from Scotlandspeople,  their marriage cert. will have the names of both sets of parents and wether they were deceased or not.

Thanks Sancti
If Helen was 15 yrs, b Stevenston Ayr, I wonder if she is on the 1891 Census for this area.
