Hi

I have just been reading through the recent posts. Have not been on in awhile but am glad to see we have made some progress. Just to refresh...I am Kate's great granddaughter via her daughter Catherine Johnson (Brogan) now Walker....I call her Nan but everyone else calls her Kitty. My mom is Jean (Regina).

I would love any information (Sharon has helped very much)

I am on Facebook...what is the name of the family page on facebook?

Thanks for your reply. yes my great grandmother died in the US as did her sister and I know that they are from Montrath Loais County Ireland (at the time it was still Queens County). I have their parents as Micheal and Anna.  I understand that my great great grand father came to America but at some point must have went home bc my information says he died in Montrath. I am trying to find relatives from that point. His wife was Anna Grant.  I have passenger list for arrival in the US for the twins and their brothers but I find it difficult to locate information Ireland

The information I have for Barbara has her name on the England and Wales Free BMD Index as Barbara M M Albiston.
I wonder if that is the MM. She was born in or around Wallsend and her mothers name is Whilimina.  Thanks for pointing me in another direction.

Northumberland Lookup Requests / Albiston - surname lookup please
« on: Tuesday 27 June 06 00:42 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to locate information on the Albiston family.  They were living in Northumberland in 1891 and 1901 respectivly.  The mother and father William and Wilhemina were both from Aberdeen, Scotland and thier 1st 4 children were born there.  They had some other children born in Tynemouth, Northumberland - one, Barbara, eventually immigrated ti the US.  Does anyone have any information in this family?

I am researching the Duff surname in Ireland.  My GGmother immigrated to American in 1911.  Her name was Caterine Duff, she was born in 1893 and had a twin sister named Mary.  I have been unsucessful in locating her in Ireland.  According to my grandmother, she was born in County Laois, manybe near Mountrath.  Does anyone have information om this surname?

I am trying to find a connection not to the Duffies but to the Duffs in Ireland so far with no luck.  Have you come across any name variants in your reserach?
