Antrim / Re: Place name - Scroggy?
« on: Tuesday 17 February 15 18:22 GMT (UK) »
Thanks to everyone for their help. The groom and all subsequent records are in the Carncastle/Cairncastle area so that would fit in perfectly for Scroggie. Will need to look out for that book glensman.
Many thanks for the link to the place names search gaffy and the information on the road names aghadowey. All adds to me building up my knowledge.
Thank you to everyone for all the suggestions. They are all welcomed and appreciated.

Thanks kingskerswell, I'll look into that. There's a Scroggy Road in Co. Antrim too so I've been trying to research that first as it's near where all the other people were living at the time. However, nothing to actually link the person to Co. Antrim apart from marriage relations.

Antrim / Place name - Scroggy?
« on: Tuesday 17 February 15 15:49 GMT (UK) »
I was looking at a marriage certificate from 1846 and it looks like the bride's residence is given as Scroggy. I have searched for a place with this name but have only come up with names such as Scroggy Road.
If anyone has any ideas of either where I can look further or if they have heard of Scroggy itself then I will be very grateful of any help.

Scotland / Re: Cannot Track Down A Death Record - Any Suggestions?
« on: Monday 02 June 14 15:22 BST (UK) »One suggestion - she went back to Ireland for a visit and died while there?
Or
Was in England for some reason and died while there?
Dawn M
I've not found any likely contenders in Ireland but one or two in England that suit with dates and age. I've no connection with her being there though so will keep a note of them for now. Thanks for all your suggestions.

Thanks Forfarian. I'll check out possibilities at the Mitchell in case there has been a spelling mistake or it has been transcribed incorrectly.

That's a good call too Dawn. I think from the Scottish records side of things it's one for a visit by me to SP at the Mitchell to trawl through records. I've had a look online today at Irish records but nothing has matched so far but I'll persevere! Part of the fun of course is turning up these types of hard to find records.
Glad to hear you managed to track down your record in the end - always good to hear these positive stories when you are looking for someone. 😊

Thanks for your suggestions Dawn and I will look into these records. Feel like I should have thought of that myself but I think I got too caught up into looking for other children in Scotland! I really appreciate you taking the time to answer.
