Nice to finally meet you also ,

My cousin got the birth cert for my grandad james , the 1 you found for us , and on it said his father was john lowrie a steamcrane driver , widower and he as been giving me more of an headache than james did .  :-\.

I got john lowrie (james's parents ) marriage cert and it did all tie in with hannah jones as his second wife . But as i said i cannot get back any further than that , i can find info but dont know how to tie it all together so i can send for john's birth cert . Hence this plea for help .

Hi both ,
I am looking for John Lowrie b1851 , i have his marraige cert to Hannah Maria Jones nee french (this was there 2nd marraige) .

I am having lots of problems as all census state different birth place , i have got the info of john been a lodger , and there is a strong possibility that is him .

I cannot find any reference to his 1st marraige , I do know that johns father was named john also , i have spent weeks looking thru ancestry for a john b1851 with father named john .
I seem to be going round in circles .

I have been doing this tree mainly for my mum as a birthday present in sept she will be 83 and has not been well lately thats why i said i am running out of time .

Hi ,

I have been researching my dads family , who lived in middlesbrough.

I have got info on my dad and grandad, also gr grandad and his second wife from 1889 up to 1906, but cannot find anything before 1889.

His name was john lowrie/lowery/lowrey(any spellings ) b1851 in newcastle ,  on his 2nd marraige cert it states that john's father was also named john , was deceased occ was a caster .

on census (1889-1901) john b1851 occupation was engineman or steam engineman also steamcrane driver .

Can anyone please help i am running out of time and just dont know how to link john back any further .
Regards
Sue

Hi ,

Yes i have marr cert , but it is of his second wife , her name was hannah maria jones /nee french. she came from dowlais wales , they married in 1889 in middlesbrough  north yorks , i have loads of info about them from when they got married but nothing on john before that time .

I can tell you that on the 1891 census for middlesbrough john's place of birth was down as newcastle , but then on the 1901 census it said place of birth glasgow scotland.

I know it is the same man, as he is with the same family .
Confusing or what ?lol , not only did the name lowrie get spelt loads of different ways but birth place was registered different as well . This is were all my problems lie .

Hope you can help or point me in the right direction , i will say i have looked on all sites i could think of and spent lots of money wasting credits on might be's .

regards
sue
