Henderson Belfast Birth look Up Please
« on: Tuesday 19 February 08 19:51 GMT (UK) »
Hi Everyone ;D

I am trying to find my 4th Greatgrandmother, Jane Henderson. I know she was born in Belfast between 1829 and 1834. Her parents names are Joseph Henderson & Elizabeth Fasnell or Farnell. She moved to Glasgow before 1846 when she married Richard McLaren on 4th Sept, who was from County Tyrone. She died 23 May 1883 at 65 Brown Street, Barony, Glasgow. Jane had 6 children all born in Scotland. I have found census reports in Scotland for 1851, 1871 & 1881.

In the 1851 Scottish Census, Jane lived with her husband Richard McLaren, her 2month old daughter Mary Ann and 2 visitors Mary ann Henderson age 17 and Sarah Henderson age 52, i think they may be relatives maybe a Cousin and a Aunt.

This is all the info i have, hopeully i will be of some use, many thanks

Kind Regards

Sarah

It will be difficult to locate a baptismal record for Jane Henderson without knowing exactly what church her family attended and there's always the chance that the church records no longer exist.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Hi

Thanks again for looking at my post, as far has religion goes, i did notice on one of Jane's sons marriage certs that it mentioned according to the forms of the Original Secession Church. Would this mean anything. Please excuse my ignorance. Can you point me in the right direction with this. Your help and guidance is very much appreciated.

Thank you
