Hi I am researching GAILEY families in ahoghill
I have a William Gailey marriage to Mary Clarke on 14 May 1857.
I think William Gailey is the brother of James Gailey and the brother of Rose Anne Gailey who married James Tip pen in Ahoghill 2nd Presbyterian on 11 sept 1858.
I am looking to confirm if William Gailey an Rose Ann were in fact related and what happened to them especially rose ann Gailey who I think is my maternal great grand mother.
Thanks if anyone can help

Hi,
William and Rose Ann may be related but they are not siblings. Williams' father was also William but Rose Ann's father was James.

Hi,
I have just noticed that a william Gailey married Anne Brown in 1858 in Ahoghill Second Presbyterian Church and his father was James.
Regards

Hi looks like William gailey who married Anne brown may be related rose Ann gailey if the father in both cases was a James gailey.
The Rose Ann Gailey marriage in 1858 was witnessed by a William Gailey and a Matilda Gailey who I assume were related.
Does anyone have a list of the various Gailey families in Ahogill and how they are related.
Thanks if anyone can help

As James Tippen and Rose Ann Gailey seem to have moved to Scotland and had several children in both the New Monkland and Rutherglen areas, and indeed are living in Old Monkland area with their children at 1881 Census, perhaps Scottish records would help you discover what became of Rose Ann.

Thanks scotmum
I have found them in scotland but have had great difficulty tracing back to ireland.
They may have changed name in scotland due to spelling issues from Tippen to tipping and Gailey,
I have seen spelt several ways gailly or gallie or gally
I am working back from a robert tipping born about1874 in scotland died 1925.
Father James Tipping Mother Rose Ann Gailey (Ms probably pritchard) from a death cert in motherwell 1915 father of rose was wiliiam gailey.Rose ann Gailey was born in ireland as was james tippen/tipping
any info welcome
Thanks

Your earlier comment as to 'what became' of Rose Ann led me to think you were seeking her after her marriage to James Tippen.
Ok, so was it Rose Ann who died in 1915? If yes, why do you say her maiden surname was 'probably Pritchard'? If her father was William Gailey and she married James Tippen as Rose Ann Gailey.....then Pritchard has me confused.
-
Your right i have confused things
Rose ann tipping died aged 74 in 1915 ms gailey her mother was rose ann gailey ms pritchard father stated as Willam Gailey.
The only marriage I can find is a James Tippen and Rose ann Gailey in ahoghill 1858
sorry if this is confusing

Thank you for the clarification.
Ok, so now we have a birth year of c1841 for Rose Ann and both parents names.
The earliest baptismal records start in 1835 for 2nd Ahoghill and marriages begin in 1836, so there is a possibility, if her family had association with the church she married in, her birth may have been recorded there too - her birth is too early for Civil Registration in Ireland.
These church records would be available to search on microfilm at PRONI or a film could possibly be ordered in by you at a LDS centre if you live near one.
Slight problem arises, though, in that you say now Rose Ann Gailey's father was a William Gailey, yet the Rose Ann Gailey who married James Tippen, apparently, according to earlier posts above, had father James (albeit names on death certificates are only as good as the knowledge of the person giving them, and mistakes are not unusual).
-
Forgot to ask, do you have copies of any of the birth certificates for james and Rose Ann's children born Scotland.....do they concur with the marriage in Ahoghill in 1858?
-
Hi scotmum
Yes i have now checked some marriage and birth certificates which confirm that James Tippen and Rose Ann Gailey are my Great Great Grandparents.
The problem has been the spelling in Scotland Tippen as Tippin and finally Tipping
Gailey as Gailley Galley Gallie even Gillie .
So I am looking for Irish records Births 1858 to about 1866 as I have all the children born in Scotland.
Marriage was in Aohghill 2nd presbyterian 9th nov 1858
James Tippen and Rose Ann Gailey
Father William Tippen and father James Gailey mother from death cert Rose ann gailey ms Pritchard.
I am looking for the parents William Tippen and his wife and James Gailey and any other children.
I am looking for births to James Tippen and Rose Ann Gailley 1858 to 1866
James abt 1862, Rose Ann abt 1863, Jane abt 1864 and William Tippen abt 1865
Thanks for any information
Colin
