Apologies I have Just notest my miss type this was supposed to say any good websites that would give me this information. I was also interested if anyone has any information on movement between Scotland and Ireland before 1841 as I always assumed the name Evans would go back to wales but the family seem to have come over from Ireland.  Please trail below.

Antrim / James Evans - Ireland
« on: Wednesday 07 September 16 14:11 BST (UK)  »
Hi There,

Can you point me in the right direction. I have traced my Evans family from Campbelltown/Inverkip and Irvine. The family then seem to have come over from Ireland.
James Evans born 1803 Ireland, died 1875 in Irvine and his wife Mary Ann Whiteford born 1807 Ireland, died 1873 Irvine. Their son John born 1845 Irvine died 1893 Inverkip. 

On looking at other family tree of the same family it looks as though James and Mary Ann were married in Belfast in 1827.
I have looked at the Emerald Ancestors website and the dates don't seem to go back as far as that.
Can you tell me any god websites I can search for this in.
Thanks

Hi There,

Can anyone help as to where the best place to look for an ancester who was charged of a crime in Glasgow around 1927 to 1947 and  and spent small time in prison. I have looked in the NAS in the Scottish National archives but don't seem to see any prison or court records.

thanks

World War One / Battle of Cambrai WW1 18th of November 1917
« on: Tuesday 12 February 13 22:57 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone tell me what happend at the Battle of Cambrai and Battle of Ypres on the 18th of November 1917 WW1. My great  Uncle Donald Cameron was in the 1st Batallion of the Cameron Highlanders and he died on the 18th of November 1917 at the Battle of Cambrai.  I have looked at the battles and it looks like a tank battle started on the 20th of November and the infantry probably cleared the way for the tanks but there doesn't seem to be anything about what happend to the Cameron Highlanders on this date and how they died.

Thank for your information on Noel. I really appreciate this. I will have a look at the Scottish National archives for this and see if I can find anything on the other two brothers who were both in the same war. One died two months later at home and the other 1917 in the battle of Cambrai.

World War One / 5th Battalion Cameron Highlanders 1916
« on: Thursday 15 November 12 09:10 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help as to the best place to look up what happend to the soilders of the 5th Battalion of the Cameron Highlanders in October 1916.
My Great uncle  Noel P Cameron Serjeant in the Cameron Highlanders 5th Battalion died on 18/10/1916 in France and his name is on the Thiepval Monument. Service number 9286.
His Brother was also in this battalion and he died at home later that year from his wounds 17/12/1916. Service No: S/10571 George D Cameron.

I have looked up accounts of the battle of the Somme but can't see anything for around this time for this battalion.

Lanarkshire / Re: Glasgow Grave
« on: Tuesday 16 October 12 13:37 BST (UK)  »
Hi There, thank you all for your help on this one. I have searched through the Evening times and Glasgow Herald attachments and can not find this on the anouncements. I have got some more information on the Death record. Marion Young Died 31.10.1966  at 301 Nuneaton Street Glasgow. Death was registered on the 01.11.1966. Parents William Reilly and Helen Reilly. The district was 644-6 entry number 852 in the Peoplescotland log. Does anyone know what the nearest cemetry to this district would have been? I think they would have been RC. Is there a way you can look up headstones in the various glasgow cemetries or is there somwhere these records are held?
