Hi  :)

mclaughlan, if I can suggest... There are an awful lot of McLaughlan (and variants) in the Renfrewshire area over the years.

Why don't you post some details on some of the key families you are connected with so that people can see if they can recognise some of the details?

My Grandfather John Harrison according to the death cert was living 4 Chalmers st he died 1951
I have no idea who R McLachlan (nephew) is as the informant
My Grandfather remarried in 1944 to a Mary McEwan so maybe a relative on her side

John Harrison also had a brother Thomas who also lived Chalmers st
some certs i have  also mentioned 6 and 8

I'm not sure how to reply,  it's my first time on this site. My G G Grandfather's death certificate says that he died in 8 Chalmers street in Nov 1921. I'm looking for family history. His name was Alexander Harvey

My gr-gr-grandfather was Dominick McLaughlin, but he was a transplant from Derry, Northern Ireland. He worked in Neilston/Paisley area as railway surface man. Believe the rest of this McLaughlin clan remained in Ireland, but unsure. He married in Neilston, had 2 daughters who both died young. I'd love to find his descendants in Londonderry!

Well, I was also responding to this thread about McLaughlins in Renfrewshire. My gr-gr-grandfather, Dominick McLaughlin, did emigrate from Derry, but married and remained in Renfrewshire until his death in 1901. I don't know if other members of his McLaughlin clan followed him to Renfrewshire, but I do know one of his brothers was in the area for work for about a year, then returned to Ireland. Dominick married Bridgett Kerr in 1871. They had 2 daughters, Jane and Mary, who both pre-deceased their parents and never married. I will go back to my prior McLaughlin thread to pursue questions I still have about this family, thanks.
