The birth registered in the first quarter of 1921 sounds about right. 

Is it possible to get further details, parents name address and date of birth? 

If possible how do I go about it?

Can it be done online?

Thanks

Thank you for this.  I have no records for Isobel except the name given to me by someone who saw the photograph I had and told me who here parents were.  As far as I am aware she has died. 

I am trying to find out where she went to and who her family are. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I am trying to trace information on a relative Isobel (or Isabell or Isabella) Macartney

Daughter ofMatthew and Margaret Jane Macartney of Cromkill/Kilbride outside Ballymena Co Antrim Northern Ireland

She was born in Kilbride Co Antrim around the 1920's

She served in the Royal Air Force I think during WW2.

I know her married name was McKnight but have no further information.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you very much for this.  It now confirms the correct William Macartney and Wife as I know they lived in Calgary. 

Thanks for your help will try and follow this up.  :) :)

To both of you thank you very much for all your help.  I had almost given up hope of tracing my Gt Uncle at all. 

Do you know if it is possible to view the full marriage certificate before buying or are full details only available on the certificate.  Also can the order be paid for online and then downloaded or does it have to be done by post?

Again many thanks for your help.  ;D  ;D

Further question

1. How do you know he was in Canada between 1906 and 1925 in Winnipeg?
2. How did you obtain the address in Winnipeg you mention above?
3. Is it possible for me to view the Montcalm passenger list you mention for 4 April 1926

Thanks

Gerald

Thank you very much for this.  I have an old photograph of William Macartney and on the back it refers to his wife as Louise so the 1918 marriage to Louise Odger is a possibility.

Regarding the passenger list William does have a brother M (Matthew) Macartney who lived at Cromkill nr Ballymena so again this is looking good.  The only problem is that the surname is spelt differently.  While people generally spell it McCartney the correct spelling is Macartney and I would assume that it would have been spelt correctly on the marriage records.

But thank you for your help I do appreciate it.

Gerald. :D

William was born in 1886 in what is now Northern Ireland.  His parents were Matthew and Ann Macartney.  Do not know his mothers maiden name.

He was born in Cromkill near Kells, Co Antrim, Ireland.

Other than this I am at a loss.

Thanks for any help you can offer.  :)

Trying to trace a William Macartney who emigrated to Canada from Northern Ireland in early 1900's.  Went on to live in Calgary where he married.  Do not know wife's name but I do know they did not have any children.

Can anyone help with suggestion where to search?

Thanks.  :)
