Stirlingshire / SARKIES CRAWFORD McKAY at Kilsyth c.1880
« on: Friday 18 August 06 23:03 BST (UK)  »
Seeking links to ISABELLA CRAWFORD wife of JOHN McKAY of Glasgow c.1800
My Grandmother GRACE JAGO SARKIES was born 1880 at KILSYTH to HELEN (nee McKAY and ANDREW JOHN SARKIES (John Andrew?)
Sadly he left her, as she returned to Australia 1883 with her family of young ones - some died young. She met with the families of JAGO, CRAWFORD BROOKS etc. I have a lot of data re these families at that time - at Kilsyth Parish Kingston....Thelma Birrell in Australia

MALTMAN BAIN SHEARER JAMIESON are main lines. I have extensive links to all these families on the north bank of Clyde from c.1800. There are marriages between them and witness names which all seem to be married into the family line.. Much to share, Thelma in Australia.

ISABELLA CRAWFORD married JOHN McKAY at Glasgow. Their daughter Helen (Ellen) McKay arrived in Melbourne Australia c.1860 and married c.1863 to ANDREW JOHN SARKIES or JOHN ANDREW SARKIES. He was Armenian born Iran. A few children were with her, as she retuned to Stirlingshire to her family. This is where my grandmother GRACE JAGO SARKIES was b.1880. Helen Sarkies returned to Melbourne 1883 without her husband. Sadly a few of her family died young and she d.c1900 in Melbourne. Muc h to share..  Thelma

Lanarkshire / MALTMAN SHEARER
« on: Friday 18 August 06 22:40 BST (UK)  »
JOHN MALTMAN came to Australia c.1853 from Glasgow. He was industrial chemist working for Hutcheson & Mitchell. He was linked to SHEARER family, as his father JAMES MALTMAN married SHEARER and the brother JOHN MALTMAN married SHEARER in Glasgow as well. There is much history gleaned over 20 years to share with others on Maltman lines c.1800 Glasgow an onward. Thelma in Australia

Durham Lookup Requests / MONTGOMERY - SOUTH SHIELDS
« on: Wednesday 16 August 06 22:39 BST (UK)  »
JOHN MONTGOMERY died 1847 at South Shields aged 75. We have certificate. Is this our John ??
He was born at South Shields as was his wife Elizabeth as per the Census of 1841.  Elizabeth (widow) was then found with her son John Montgomery, coastguardsman at Lulworth 1851 census.  In this, Elizabeth says she was born at Berwick (near South Shields?) As there is a Marine College at South Shields, we believe John went from there to Halifax, Nova Scotia when the son John Montgomery was born in 1810 (I.G.I.) WE are SEEKING PARENTS of JOHN MONTGOMERY born 1810. We think John who died at South Shields 1847 aged 75, is the right one and his marriage would be around c. 1772.. Can anyone help with this from Parish records? Many Thanks for your interest..Thelma

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: ROBERT YATES & MARY FISH
« on: Wednesday 16 August 06 21:51 BST (UK)  »
Dear Matty, Thank you very kindly for checking that out for me, although I have looked further into the FISH surname for Mary. At that same time there were quite a number of Robert YATES who married Mary and FISH was only one of about 7-8. When I looked for the two sons Edward and Joseph, I was unable to link them to Robert and Mary (nee Fish).  So, Mary was probably one of the other ladies.
It is definitely Robert and Mary YATES, but the Mary has to be confirmed... yet !!!   I am grateful for your interest and help... Enjoy your day... Thelma
