This forum does not seem to still be very active, but I am hoping to find out some information. I have just started researching my family for my grandfather. He and my grandmother have moved into an assisted living facility recently, and I am hoping to brighten their day with some information about the family. I used the free trial of ancestry to find some information, but ran into a wall and not sure how to find out additional information. I have traced my grandfather's family to Dunbartonshire with mentions of Duntocher and Filshies Land? The information I have:
Elizabeth Smith (married name), I do not have her husband's name, I know they have a daughter Catherine Smith who married a Patrick Joseph Andrews (born Antrim, Ireland) in 1920 in Dunbartonshire. They gave birth to a daughter Elizabeth Andrews in 1921 in Dunbartonshire, and in 1922 immigrated to the United States. On the passenger ship list Elizabeth Smith is listed as mother of Catherine Smith still living in Duntocher, Filshies Land (that is what is written on the passenger list). They later had my grandfather in Brooklyn, NY. I would love if anyone had any information that might kick start my search further. Not knowing Elizabeth Smith's husband's name or maiden name seems to have me stuck.
