Lanarkshire / Re: Family Records Suggestions
« on: Thursday 28 December 23 09:18 GMT (UK)  »
I often find newspaper articles contain valuable/interesting information. Not just family notices, but ads, snippets of news, court cases etc.

Thank you for the suggestion. Is there a particular source you use for these articles? Is there a particular site, etc, best for Lanarkshire articles?
Or would I locate said newspapers at a library, etc?

Lanarkshire / Family Records Suggestions
« on: Thursday 28 December 23 08:39 GMT (UK)  »
Hi folks

As part of my research, I have used ancestry, scotlands people, and various Irish based sites.
I have located birth certs, baptism certs, marriage and death info. I have census records in both Scotland and Ireland, as well as old parish records from Ireland. I have also exhausted poor law records.
I'm looking for suggestions of any other records that I could look at to find out anything else about my family in Lanarkshire, Scotland from 1870 onwards. They lived initially in Airdrie area, the out to Caldercruix, Longriggend and then Mossend/Bellshill.
I was wondering if anyone knew of any other source that I may not have thought of to find more info.
Best wishes.

The Crettyard Laois info is based off of someone's search for those combination of names. I have no idea how accurate it is, but I haven't found any other record those name combinations and the dates.

I've found them on the 1871, 1881 and 1891 Scottish Census. I also found Mary on the 1901 and 1911 census.
I've got their marriage cert and most of the children's birth certs.

Thanks for your replies folks.

I suppose I am throwing it out generally to see if anyone else is looking for the same family.

If I had to be specific, I am looking for more info on where John was from. I have conflicting reports.
One story is he is from a town near Boyle in Co Roscommon, another is that he is from Crettyard in Co Laois. Very different places.
His father was Michael Daly and his mother was Bridget Harmon/Harman/Hamlin (unsure of surname).
His children were Michael, Thomas, James, Alice, Mark, Bridget, John and Patrick.

I'd also be looking for for any local records that provide more detail on the family. I can't find any poor law records for them until after John died in 1898.

Lanarkshire / Daly Family in Airdrie area and Mossend
« on: Sunday 15 January 23 13:53 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for info on John Daly and his wife Mary O'Neill.
John was born in Ireland in 1847 and Mary in Wales in 1849.
They were married in 1872 in St Margaret's in Airdrie.
They lived in Arden, Airdriehill, Longriggend, Greengairs and Caldercruix.
They moved to Waddell's Land in Mossend at some point in the 1890s.
They had 8 children.
I've found a decent amount of info already, just looking to see if anyone can add anything else.
Or if there are unknown relatives out there with further info.
Cheers folks.

Laois (Queens) / Re: Daly's from Doonane

Hi,
My GG Grandfather came from the Mayo and Doonane parish area. I think he may have lived in Crettyard. His name was John Daly born in 1847. His parents were Michael and Bridget.
Not sure if it is the same family.
