Title: Gillone or Gillon *Completed
Post by: allesond on Friday 30 December 11 22:07 GMT (UK)

I am trying to find the mother of my great grandmother Catherine Gillone b~ 1848, who married Leveson Douglas Stewart. Her father was James Gillone b~ 1815, but I cannot find any mention of her mother.

Regards,
allesond

I am very grateful+++.
As I looked up the 1871 census I now see a Barbara Welsh as the sister of Mary Gillone--thank you, you have not only given me the surnames of my ancestors, but the birth date of my great grandmother.

I have Catherine (Kate) Gillone's marriage, as listed in Burke's, as Sept. 10th 1871 from the Peerage.com. I suppose the marriage might not have been registered until 1872.

Best regards,
Alleson

the igi is not always 100% right,its okay to use as a guide, you need to check the dates etc so your date for the marriage could be the correct one, you need the marriage cert to be sure :)

happy new year

I have 3 generations back from James Gillone if you are interested.  He was my 2x great grandfather's brother.  Karabim
