West Lothian (Linlithgowshire) / Re: Anthony Family Research
« on: Monday 27 August 12 14:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi They are 2 different families
My Gideon was born in West Calder in 1905. His father Gideon was born in 1880 in Livingston. His father was was also Gideon (born 1835 in Ecclesmachan who was married to Marion Young. His father was Thomas Anthony married to Barbara Thompson. Thomas died prior to 1851 in Corstorphine so I cannot prove it but I believe his parents were Gideon Anthony( Born 1792 in Livingston to William Anthony and Agnes Samuel.) and Janet Tripney. Neil I'll send you my research offline.

Hi
Neil. My father Gideon Anthony used to take us to Burntisland from West Calder to visit his relatives. He was the son of Gideon Anthony and Elizabeth Purdie.  My great grandparents were Gideon Anthony born 1835 and Marion Young. They were married in 1862 in Ratho.  I have Agnes Tait Anthony married to James Napier and Thomas Napier married to Mary Ann Napier. I thought they were the children of Gideon and Marion. Have I got it wrong? Thanks Jean

New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Miller Andrews

Have now located John's marriage certificate. They were married on 13th December 1892 (registered 1893) in Bowfield Renfrewshire. John list his parents as John Andrews Millar and Mary Millar and signs as John Millar which is why I've been searching so long! This is not illegal over here. I've checked 2 of the children so far. They were also registered with the surname Millar. I've information going back to 1800. May be easiest if you log on to GenesReunited and ask for permission to see my family tree.
let me know how you would like the information.

Great news.
I've located John Andrews in the 1901 census. Clue was Johnstone as mentioned here.
He was living at 22 Russell Street Johnstone. He was 30 and a gatekeeper storeman. Married to Martha who was 28. He was my gran's brother, born in West Calder and Daniel Craig Miller Andrews brother. Martha was a British subject born in India. Children were Daniel aged 7 born Coatbridge. Samuel aged 5 born in Howwood, John aged 2 born Johnstone and Mary aged 5months also born Johnstone. How much information would you like about John's ancestors?

Hi
I'm the researcher mentioned. I have Daniel born 1873 in Hamilton's birth certificate. Not difficult as I still live there. My gran Annie Calderhead Andrews was also born in Hamilton.  Their parents were John Andrews and Mary Miller. Mary was the daughter of David Miller and Annie Calderhead. Annie died after 1851 and David remarried Janet Erskine. He was the son of Daniel Miller and Mary Faulds from Whitburn in Lanarkshire.  Annie was fron Shotts in Lanarkshire. I have the family in census records to 1891. But in the 1901 census could only find Annie and David and no death certificates.
So I assumed Daniel and John had moved somewhere else probably when their grandfather David died in 1897.
I have no records with the name Galbraith although there are other Daniel Millers in the area as the   Scottish naming convention means cousins have same name.
Hope this helps
Jean
