Lanarkshire / Brickwall with Eadie/Addis/Addes family Lanarkshire
« on: Thursday 17 November 16 23:11 GMT (UK)  »
I've hit a brickwall with my dad's maternal (Eadie) line.

I got back to my 4x Great grandparents William Addes and Margaret Dickson.

William was born about 1800 in Drygate Lanarkshire. William, a Cotton Hand Loom Weaver, and Margaret were married 23 Oct 1820 in Glasgow. I have them and their children on the 1841 census in Camlachie and the 1851 census at Glasgow College.  William died on 10th May 1855 in High Church Glasgow.  His parents are listed on his death certificate as Joseph Addes, Cotton Weaver, and Agnes Dinwoodie (sp?) His brother John Addes was the informant on his death certificate.

I have been searching for William and John's birth, or their parents marriage or death certificates with no luck.

Our current surname is spelled Eadie but I have traced it back through a few different variations including Addis and Addes.

If anyone can offer any help it would be greatly appreciated!

One family line of mine have been, through all the censuses, Crouther, Crowther, Crowthers, Crouthers and finally Carruthers, which they remain to this date.

I have just come across that tonight when researching my husbands ancestors. I had an Isabella Carruthers, her marriage cert listed her dad as James Crothers but her birth certificate has him as James Struthers!

I've tried searching on rootsireland for Williams birth or his parents marriage but cant see anything for them. Dont know how else to find out which part of Ireland he was from.  His marriage certificate has Robert Heaney as a witness, possibly his brother?

Will keep searching!

Ireland / William John Heaney - Shoemaker
« on: Monday 07 November 16 21:00 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help me find more info on my 3x great grandfathers Irish roots. His name was William John Heaney born about 1854 in Ireland to John Heaney and Elizabeth Haggarty. According to William's marriage and death certificate both he and his father were shoemakers.

William married Mary Hill (maiden name Cadden) 12th April 1886 in Greenock. I have them on the 1891 and 1901 census in greenock before William's death on 31 March 1933. I have found lots of information on Williams life in Scotland but cant seem to find him or his parents in Ireland! Thanks in advance

I was banging my head against a wall trying to find records for my 3x great grandfather Richard Eadie, I eventually found him under Richard Addis and his father is listed as William Addes!

Hi everyone.

I managed to find the death certificate for my 4x great grandmother Margaret Gribbon however her mother's maiden name is missing from the certificate.

Looking for tips and advice on what to do next to try and find this information to get further back on that line.

thanks in advance!  ??? ???

Oh my goodness Monica I could kiss you! That is an incredible find. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to help, I have been struggling for years wondering why I couldn't find anything about them. 

I am off to add all of this info to my tree and see where it takes me!

Hi Carole,

I have searched for a marriage for David and Marion but cant find anything.

I had a quick look and got the record you were talking about but I am not sure its for the right person.
