Hi,
I am looking for information on my great great great grandparent and their parents. My gggrandparents were Robert Baxter and Jane Henderson who married in 1892. They married at 46, St. Vincent crescent.
Robert Baxter's parents were Robert Baxter and Jane Hamilton. He lived at 1, Hope street, Glasgow.
Jane Henderson's parents were Isaac(?) Henderson and Mary or May Williamson. She lived at 9, Grace(?) street, Glasgow.
I would love some more info on all these people, especially the latter two. They don't appear to be in any records that I have searched, but I suppose that doesn't mean they are not there somwhere.
Can anyone please help?

Thanx for the info. I know that they had links to Co. Tyrone so that seems to match up. Was Jane listed as one of their children? I didn't see her on the list.
Again, thanx for looking that up! :D

Hi,
Maria Henderson was my grandmother and she married a William John Auld in Belfast on 18 July 1900 and subsequently had 2 daughters Maria Teresa and Wilhelmina. Maria was my mother who died when I was very young (and I am now very old!) but I would dearly love to know more about my grandmother who it would seem separated from my grandfather I don't know when. Cannot find any trace.

Thank you. Looks like the marriage was of short duration!! I just cannot track down any information about my grandmother following this last date and was hopeful that maybe some descendants of her sisters might be able to fill in some blanks for me. Sadly my interest in my ancestors has come a bit late and while I didn't even know until the above info that she had at least 3 sisters it would be nice to know a bit more. I came to NZ in 1956 and most contacts I could approach for info are long since dead. If my grandmother remarried - and I have searched under her maiden name as well as Auld - it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack without a new married name.

Apologies that I haven't been able to get on line to reply and thank the sender for a few more details but they are much appreciated. If only we could flesh out a bit more of other members of the family! Wish I had started this type of thing years ago for I am a bit ancient now to be on the hunt but not to worry I have enjoyed what I have found and frustrated with what I haven't been able to find. Even put an advert in a Tyrone paper but didn't get any results from that so So thank you again. Maureen
