Hi Myyran,
             Thanks for the reply, sad to say these things happened then & happen still. Though in them days it was a burden & most time left shame on the woman. I would like you to get an end resulton it & a shame the brickwall has been built in the family. I had that in my own from years ago & they don't want to talk about it. So you don't know anything of this man at all, shame, I think he would be a Mahon/McMahon.

Hi ,
   Just a curious thought ffrom myself on your Francis, could he may have been McMahon. The Irish did dropthe MC or Mac when arriving here in Scotland, jobs etc as it gave away their Religion.
   Now Another look is like my name it is Machon but not really. My GGGGrandparents came over as either McMahon or Mahon. When My GGGradfather died his name was Francis Mahon, his Death Cert. was Francis McMahon. His Informant was his Father Francis McMahon/Mahon. So there are many ways to look into his name. My Machon name changed in the 1891 Scottish Census from Mahon to Machon, possibly because of the laungage barrier??. We also have another variabnt later from our name of Machan. So that may help you or may not, & my Grandfather's name was Francis Machon as well but born here.

Sorry to have bored you a little.

Harry Machon.
