Whitehead - lookup please
« on: Thursday 19 January 06 20:11 GMT (UK) »
Could someone please lookup:

Catherine Boyd Whitehead
Born:  c.1853, England

Don't have any more information than this, but I imagine there can't be too many people with this name.  Many thanks in advance.

Hi, me again.

Place of birth would be useful too. Just checked census and there are several Catherine Whiteheads.  ???

Hi Mark,

Thanks for getting back to me.

Afraid this is all the information I have.  She died between 1902 and 1949(!)  If it's of any help, she seemed to have 8 children, 1 born in England, 5 in Glasgow, 1 unknown.  "England" was as specific as I could get...

Does her middle name not help narrow things down?  Birth info is what I'm really looking for, so I can work backwards, or census also, but I imagine that might be difficult...

Thanks  :)

Hi again,

There's only one CATHARINE WHITEHEAD on the IGI (http://www.familysearch.org/)  for 1853,and she died in 1855 - Parents Edward & Mary Ann.

On 1861 census there are many catherine Whiteheads,and unfortunately many times middle names weren't given to the enumerator, so aren't registered.

Did she marry, if so what was her married name, or do the children have the same name as her?

If you have this info I might be able to find something more concrete,

Catherine married Thomas Grady, probably in Glasgow around 1870-1875. 

Son, Richard, born Glasgow 13th March 1876
Son, William, born 1878 "England"
Rest of the children, Margaret, Thomas, Martha, Grace, John, James all seem to be born Glasgow afterwards.

All children took the surname Grady...

Thanks a lot,

Stephen

HI again,

I've just checked the  Scotlands people ' site:

http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

ther eis a marriage listed there, but I haven't paid for further access. If you click the link you can access the site,register and pay to get the results. Hopefully it will be the people you are looking for.

Or you could hold out here for SKS to check it out for you?!


Sorry - couldn't find her anywhere else. :(

Good luck. ;)
