Aargh! Missing O'Hara in Lanarkshire help!

[KatieC]

I'm searching for my missing O'Hara, still.  I have been throwing countless credits into the vast pool on Scotlands People and I have not been able to come up with anything.  It's starting to hurt my credit card!

Can anyone help me locate

Edward O'Hara
Married to Sarah Bashford.

No birth dates, marriage dates, etc.  And because I have no dates, I cannot find anything on either of them on Scotland's People.

My only lead on the two of them is they had a son, Patrick O'Hara (birthplace unknown) born in or around 1806 (his age listed on the death certificate in 1866 was 60, so I would assume he was born around 1806, give or take a year).

Patrick was married in 1841 in Glasgow/Lanark first to a Catherine Ann O'Neill, then again in 1857 in St Nicholas/Aberdeen to Ann McDonald .  I got the information for Patrick and Catherine's marriage off the Family Search LDS website, however their marriage record is not listed on SP.

Can anyone help me with Edward O'Hara and Sarah Bashford?

Thanks.

Hi

Have you thought of the possibility that Edward O'Hara & Sarah Bashford were Irish and married in Ireland?  It would seem like a logical explanation especially with O'Hara name.  Also likely they had children in Ireland.

Have you found Patrick O'Hara on the census returns to see if he was Irish?

 :)I'm a Lanarkshire O'Hara, just joined this site and interested in you search.'My' O'Hara's came from County Antrim in Northern Ireland, from a delightful village called Cushendun. Can't say off hand if any Patrick was mentioned but I'll look up my family notes asap.Happy hunting!

I have been able to find Patrick O'Hara in Scotland on the 1861 census with his birthplace listed as 'Ireland'.  No city, just the country.  So my search continues!

I've had a look through my O'Hara notes but can't find what you're looking for.I'll keep you in mind as I continue my own search.

I think Edward O'Hara (1760-1866) had another son, Robert (1795-1882), who was my great great great grandfather. They were in the paper business. Robert left Northern Ireland in 1820 to for the US. I am looking to confirm he has a wife Ann Devine and Susan ?.
