Hi Goldie That's great information and fits with  few bits I know, delighted to hear from you. I ran into a blank wall on Duncan Burns and went in search of the other side of the family. I'll dig out my info and pass it on to you.

Antrim / Hugh Letson
« on: Friday 08 October 10 22:45 BST (UK)  »
I'm looking for Hugh Letson possibly died Ballymena 1880. His daughter Elizabeth married Michael McKeown in Ballymena 1853. Elizabeth is on the US census 1850 (irish born)  and returned to Ireland to marry. I can't find where Hugh was born.... or his wife's name. ;D ;D ;D

Any help would be great, I know its not a common name so that might help.

I am looking for a grave of Hugh Letson, in Ballymena/Ballymoney area. Died Ballymena about 1880, not sure what religion :-\

This is the 1901 census for the Mac Eoighans which might be of interest to you. Have you seen Violet and George's marriage cert from Glasgow, 1877. Mary Mc Keown married in Jan 1890 so she had to be born before George and Violet married. And if Cathrine is older than Mary.... and I wonder whatever happened to Hugh (Mc)Gill from Violet's 1st marriage in Glasgow in 1862?

Have you information on the Hannan's.  I'm looking for George, his parents etc.

I should likely be asking you this question under the topic Hannan instead of here, but....

They were  in both the 1901 and 1911 census but were listed in Irish. Had you any luck with Mary's birth cert?

I'm totally lost on the interesting Violet, can't figure out her comings and goings. Hugh born in Scotland, Mary in America and Annie born in Antrim, were there others etc?

Had you any luck with Michael McKeown?  My gg grandfather was  Michael McKeown from Antrim. He married Elizabeth Nelson and my g grandfather William was born in Carrickfergus in 1865. I know they too had a Scottish link.

Thank you both. I hadn't seen the Ballyshannon Directory before and I see other family names on that. Thanks a lot.
