Hi Beryl, my Lizzie Thompson, married my g-grandfather's brother, his name was David McNeill from Glasgow, He married Lizzie 1907 in Colraine N.I. and went to New York 1908, moving to Toronto Canada 1910.
That was the  last I trace them to in the Candian census and immigration crossing into Canada from the US at Niagara Falls 1911, then they dissappear, and no trace of them.

Lizzie Thompson was one of three daughters born in Colraine, and she stated in the immg crossing that her mother was a Bessie Blair, her father was David Thompson.

I hope this helps, if you look up some of my posting on Lizzie McNeill,nee Thompson, and David McNeill, there might be some other stuff.

My mother is the last of her gen of McNeills she is 82.

Thank you, I have traced my g-grandfather, from Omagh, to Glasgow, and was trying to find out what happened to his mother Ann Harkin, and sister Sarah Ann O'Neill, and trying to get further back to my gg-grandfather in Killyclogher,Omagh.

                                Thanks again, every little info helps.

No sign of the Finnies .

Margaret Finnie was my  GG-grandmother who was born in Leith 1854, and ended up in Glasgow,with her son Angus, who started off as Finnie,then Mackay, and finally Wilson.


Thank you again,                        Tom O'Neill                from Hillsboro Oregon    US

Looking for Finnies who came from Ireland  and were in the 1861 census in Leith, and O'Neills who married into the Finnies.

Any help, I would be greatful.
