Hi Christopher,
Thanks for the nudge up, as you say, every little helps. I still have not found out what became of Joseph & Ellen, another rellie tells me she has found their D.C's, six weeks ago and counting  ???. Still no proof or copies, or even a clue as to where she found them. Given up holding my breath.
Thanks again, Chas.

Dublin / Jimmy Scullion, Ballsbridge

Can anyone help, Please ???  My fathers' half-brother, James Scullion, born c1901 (+/- 1), was born to my Gran. 'out of wedlock' and, I presume adopted. I suppose it's possible Scullion was the name of my Grans' boyfriend ?
Catherine Mckeown, my Gran, later moved from near Moneymore, to Glasgow where she married my Granda.
I know, from relatives, Jimmy had visited her in glasgow, but the only information that survives is an address in 'Ballsbridge, Dublin'.
I've no idea what he worked at, and as far as I know, he never married.
Any suggestions to where I can start a search, would be great,

regards, Charlie.

Lanarkshire / Re: 1901 census Bellshill look up please ?

Hi Kaz & Snowwhite, thanks for looking  :o.
I've searched all over for Joseph's death cert., no joy ! (or should I say, no Joe ?) Anyway, story handed down through his son, Willie John, was that Joseph jumped off a bridge because they were not allowed to marry. I've proved the marriage, but not the death. Joe was a journeyman welder, so it's possible that he "fell" off a bridge while working.
Tried all variations on scotlands people, no recorded death.
Thanks again, Chas.

Searching for Joseph McGuckin, who married Ellen McKeown at Bellshill, May 13 1900. Son Willie John born July 24 1900. At 1901 census, Ellen was back with family in Ireland, widowed. I cannot find Joseph anywhere, would love to know who they lived with. Before their marriage Joseph lived at 63 Clydesdale buildings, and Ellen at 67 Clydesdale buildings, Holytown.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
