Hello Kiwi Dee,

Thank you so much for your information regarding William and Martha...I totally missed your post. I really must apologise. It looks very interesting. I shall go back over my records and see if there is an Annie there. My link is through W & M's daughter also called Martha.

Regards,
Linda

Hello Mary,

Those fathers' names match the ones I have...a little more evidence. Looking like a hopeful match there. Thank you so much for the information.

Regards,
Linda

Hello,
Thank you again for your help.

aghadowey,
Once in Scotland,  their children married in the Church of Scotland so no real clues there. The only way I can think that I might find their religion is to check the poor relief records to see if they ever registered there.

Mary,
The spelling of Gilmer/ore has been consistently Gilmour once they arrived in Scotland and it is still used in middle names in our family today. It is good to know that there are other possibilities if I can get a bit further back in Ireland. I have their death certs and 27 looks right for Martha and not far off for William. It was a b. in law who registered him so he might not have been quite sure. Thanks for that.

Much appreciated,
Linda

Hello All,

Many thanks for your replies...delighted to find the marriage details. Where did you find the information OTTO...did you have to traipse around for it...the effort is much appreciated!

I do have their Scottish death certs from SP which gives me parents names but not the area in Ireland. I got the marriage date from one of their children's birth cert...looks like the informant perhaps made a wee error!

According to Otto, looks like they were Church of Ireland.

Very much appreciate this info...gets me a step further in Ireland :)

Regards,

That is possible. My Dad would have been too young to know about any trips a round that time. I shall try and get some more info. The name Hendry rings a bell so I shall check that out too.

The description is amazing! He would have had a fresh complexion... those Craigs did! Ooooh I am getting carried away!  :P

Thank you for all your help jorose. I shall post again with more info when I can confirm it!

PS Could Calderernix (doesn't exist)  ???be Caldercruix? This is a town in Lanarkshire where it would be very possible that they lived.

Thankyou again,
Linda

Hello Jorose,
Thankyou for that reply.

Hamannan could be Slamannan. My Dad remembers his Uncle Edward so 1923 seems a bit early but you never know. He was born in 1889 so the age is right. Catherine would have been born around 1891.

They had one son before they left Scotland who ,I believe, was called Campbell.

I was trying to avoid ordering the death cert as is was around $45. ::)

Many thanks.
Linda
