Family History Beginners Board / Re: Scotland 1911 Census
« on: Thursday 02 November 17 01:04 GMT (UK)  »
Your quite right transcriptions, however you may of known what I meant. I do know that Scotlandspeople is not and never has had an annual subscription service. What I was meaning, why do you have to pay over the odds to pay for info that should be included on subscription sites like Ancestry as they include 1911 England And Wales. I feel that the Scottish Govt is holding out and getting more like the Irish where records are few and far between to get included with mainstream sites. And why not freely available for family history sites like what used to the James Watt Library that should include the 1911 transcriptions for Inverclyde (or whatever it was called beforehand).

Family History Beginners Board / Scotland 1911 Census
« on: Thursday 02 November 17 00:31 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
I cannot find an answer to this, why is that I can see the England/Wales 1911 Census records online through a site like Ancestry, but not in my local Historical Library who can give me access to Scottish census records between 1841-1901 for Inverclyde (Gourock, Greenock and Port Glasgow plus some other areas)
It seem that only Scotlandspeople have access to this and you pay a fortune to access the records. Why not have them freely available through a subscription like in Ancestry or Findmypast.

Thanks Sandra

That info is very helpful and allow me to follow them in the USA. I have made contact with a descendent but they themselves have little info so this will be invaluable to them as well.

Many Thanks

United States of America / Quigley CLEVELAND, OHIO
« on: Saturday 15 June 13 12:42 BST (UK)  »
Trying to trace the BMD of a distant branch of the Quigley family that left Scotland and set up home in OHIO, USA. They lived in or around Cleveland, Cuyahoga in the late 1890's early 1900's.

Hugh Clete Quigley was born in 1895 in Rothesay, Isle of Bute, Scotland and moved to the USA where he married a Theresa Molloy in 1917. All I know is they had at least 3 children  Hugh Cleteus(b1919), Thomas P(b1921) and a daughter Eleanore(b1929).

His brother John was born 1899 again on the Isle of Bute, Scotland and married Oradell M Bacon in 1923 OHIO. All I know about this family is 3 children but again dates of birth are just estimates John P(c1925), Mary L(c1929) & Katherine(c1934).

Their parents were Joesph Quigley & Mary McNeill, however Joesph remarried to a Anna McFarland in 1917 Ohio, USA.

Would like to know of any dates for deaths, weddings or births.

If lead was used, then probably died young. Wouldn't expect him to be more than in his mid 50's when he died then.

Hi Annette
Sorry if I sounded rude, I meant that I did a search of the Inverclyde BMD to see if his birth was maybe recorded, but greatly appreciate that you managed to find his birth cert.

cheers guys

If John lost 3yrs that that would explain a lot, I assumed that as his 2 daughters were alive in 1891 they had a good chance of still being with him in 1901 as his son John. I only allowed 2yrs difference in the Census records.
I didn't know about James, looked through INVERCLYDE BMD (Intimations) and could not see anything for this family only Mary's suicide.
