Ayrshire / Re: died Ayr County Hospital- Buried where?
« on: Thursday 25 February 16 23:13 GMT (UK) »
Hi Brian
Thanks for your reply. I have been pottering with the family tree on and off for a few years now but I have never really fleshed out the bones so to speak. I only really have what I can glean from the certificates online, which is really just dates, occupations and places, so any extra information that you may have found would be great. I knew Daniel worked as a saddler and as a child when we went on daytrips to Ayr we would pass a shop, possibly in the Sandgate, and I remember being told that was where he used to work. I remember the plastic horse's head in the window.
I managed to get back to Catherine Sheehy on the Irish side but couldn't get any further down that line.
I live within an hour's drive of Ayr and Glasgow. I should really visit the Mitchell Library and get myself down to the Ayrshire Archives. You are obviously well ahead of me in the information stakes but if there is any digging that you think I could do for you from this end I would be happy to help.
