Lanarkshire / Re: what happened to Patrick O'Donnell and family after 1881

Just put o*d*n*l* in the surname box and garngad in the place box. Patrick is listed from 1920 until 1935, and Bridget in 1940.

There 19 listings of p*t*r* o*d*n*l* in 1915 in Glasgow.
Oh how exciting - I will have a look! Never used that part of it before!

Might have done. People did go to England and to the USA and then come back again.

How did you get on with the valuation rolls

Ive never used them before - didnt know you could do that!!
Anyway I found an entry for 4 Bright St but nothing comes up for Garngad Rd - at all?!

The SP index lists the death of Bridget Geraghty, other surname O*d*n*l*, aged 65, in Springburn in 1949.

You might be surprised at how much coming and going there was between Ireland and the West of Scotland.

Ive just done a quick census search in ireland and a birth search and nothing, he was a steel worker when he came out of the army, did people leave Glasgow to go somewhere for the steel work?

I wonder if they could have gone back to Ireland for a while? Do you have a list of all the children, and are there any gaps whch might suggest a birth in Ireland?

well they were born in Scotland so would they go "back"?

1881 I have 4 Bright St
1891 he'd be about 13, cant find anything
1901, he was in the army so thats probs why cant find anything but his attestation papers (1898) say Garngad with his dad John
1908 he marries Bridget - Garngad Rd
1911 he'd be about 32 - nothing
when he dies in '36 him and Bridget are living at Garngad

So I'm not sure where Ireland would fit in? I have 2 kids born after 1915 in Glasgow but there are 3 that I cannot find records for? In all my Ireland research it seems everyone was getting out of there in the 1900s not going there?!

Also, try the 1901 and 1911 censuses of Ireland - they are free to view online at http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/

I'll check that thank you x

Have you looked at the 1911 census listing I suggested in Reply#4 above?

ignore all the 1st stuff, I'm mixing up chats!
Well I have just looked at your suggestion, it wasnt coming up as it doesnt have the apostrophe then!

I think it was 6 more credits wasted as it seems that Annie was his childless wife at that time and according to everything else he was still with Bridget and with many kids!

The index to the 1911 census lists just two Patrick O'Donnells in the City of Glasgow. Only one is aged 32, and he is listed in Garngadhill.

At the same address is Annie O'Donnell, 26.

I suggest that you look at that record and see what it tells you.

Thanks for that, after I searched now on Scotlands records for Patrick on the 1891 census being 27 years old, I get one in Bothwell - is that it, I dont know where that is?! I've spent a fortune buying credits to check them and then they are wrong so dont want to chance it anymore?! Thanks
