hi im looking for any information on my ggrand parents Thomas Jess and Mary Jane Jess (Millar). I have Irish census records 1901 and 1911. they both show that they live in Mahgeraconluce Dromore. Thomas had an older brother called Richard. Richard went to Greenock and worked with The Greenock Rope Company (i think thats the name of the company). My Thomas and his family went to New Lanark Mill in 1912, Mary Jane had died 2 years before. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Did you also put Tick in box??
-
Because I tab from box to box, I just hit any key
have often signed in as 1 Q ;D ;D
-
Thank you Hallmark. I couldn't see the tick box. I have managed to find birth register for my g aunt Anne Nobble. Thanks I'll keep searching. I will send an attachment
-
Was thinking you missed the Tick box!
-
You are better off searching for yourself keeping an eye out for Witnesses etc at Marriages, were they siblings? Could they sign their names etc etc.
Get an idea of "the bigger picture"!
-
Thanks for your information. It has been a help so far
-
No problem. It can be very rewarding.
Once you build up a Picture there are other sites to use
willcalendars.nationalarchives. for example! http://www.rootschat.com/links/01mjv/

Hi ,
I've just seen on another site someone looking for a John Jess who went to Lanark Mills in 1912 they were still there in 1922 but can't find them after that.
Possibly a relative ?
ADDED ; - it says he was born in Lisburn in 1896 son of Samuel Jess and Margaret Cargin the person is descended from John's sister Ellen Jess
betsy
-
Possibly some relative..... there were 4 or 5 Jess families in Magheracloone in 1901 which is where the Civil Reg Birth, Marriage and Death results for Jess will help sort them as to Who is Who.
-
Grrr 4 or 5 Jess families in Magheraconluce ;D
-
Hi Betsyblue. Thanks for your information, and sorry not got back to you sooner. I have looked into Samuel and I don't think he is related. I've got an extract from a book on the imagination of Irish to new lanark. It tell of my family coming over in 1912, and how my great uncle who was already working in Greenock with the Greenock rope works company (I think that Co name). Thanks again, any information is always useful. James

Hi Hallmark, sorry I haven't posted back. I have checked out your links (not with great detail). The marriage of Thomas and Mary jane is interesting. I'll have to try and check out more. Thanks

click Image to view the Cert
which is https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1892/10641/5876821.pdf
then by checking other Marriages you can find siblings....
then clicking on Births check for children for each couple.
If you can look for yourself it makes it easier for you to research at your leisure or as and when you make new discoveries plus be able to check on those that don't have Images yet.

Thanks again, getting there. What if there is no image?
