Ulrich of Kilmarnock

[Warren1975]

Hi

Does anyone have any information about the Ulrich Family of Kilmarnock ?

My grandfather's name was Carl Ulrich. (1922-92)

His ancestor John Ulrich came over from Germany in 1846, settled in Kilmarnock and worked as a miner.

Cheers,
Warren

Hello Warren,

From the IGI - all 'extracted' - a Yossans Ulrick married a Jessie Dickson on 10 JUN 1864 Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland 

The couple then as John and Jessie Ulrich had the following 3 children.

HENRY ULRICK   Birth: 12 JUN 1864 Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland (note the spelling 'k')
ROBERT ULRICH Birth: 11 MAY 1872 Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland
ROBINA ULRICH Birth: 08 NOV 1873 Kilmarnock, Ayr, Scotland
 
Downloading one of the above 'extracts from www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk will get you back another generation on each side.

However, if you look at the IGI census records for the USA (1880), it'd appear that there were other Ulrichs born in Scotland in the 1840's

Good luck.

Regards,   Steve  :O)

Hi Steve,

What does IGI stand for ?

I had a look on scotlandspeople before and thats where I got the info that John settled in Kilmarnock in 1846.

I think I remember that he eventually had about 6 children.

I left the print outs at my work I think so I'll need to check them tomorrow to see if they tally in.

From what I remember as well there was only originally 1 Ulrich family in Kilmarnocj and that was John's.

Obviously as his children grew up and started families there were more Ulrich families in Kilmarnock.

I think its quite cool though i might be related to all the Ulrichs that ever lived in, or came from Kilmarnock.

I'll let you know know when I check it out.

Cheers,
Warren

Hi

The info that I've got from ancestry.co.uk and the 1881 Scotland Census
is that John's family consisted of :-

John Ulrich Age 38 (born 1843)
Jessie Ulrich      34 (born 1848)
John Ulrich         13 (born 1868)
Robina Ulrich       7 (born 1874)
James Ulrich        5 (born 1876)
Hendry Ulrich       3 (born 1878)

It also says John was a coal miner, lived at 31 Back St, Kilmarnock, and
says under Where born: (British Subject), Germany.

I would like to know where John came from in Germany if possible and what happened to all the Ulrichs

Cheers,
Warren

Hello Warren,

Go to www.familysearch.org - it'll explain all - good up until 1875 for 'extracted' records.  Shall send you a pm on how to search etc.  Regards,   Steve  :O)
~~~~~~~~--------------------------

Just back of SP just now.  A search for Ulrick/ch children all of Scotland from 1855 to 1885 brings up 4.  This is 'your' family.

1876   ULRICH   JAMES STORRIE M   KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1873   ULRICH   ROBINA             F   KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1872   ULRICH   ROBERT             M   KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1864   ULRICK   HENRY             M   KILMARNOCKAYR

As I said on my first post you need to download the marriage entry to get back another generation - as it will give both sets of parents names on it :O)   Downloading a later childs birth entry will also have the parents marriage details - which will also confirm for you that you have the correct family.  Can you please update when you get back a generation.  Thanks ................

Hello again Warren,

I can only find them in Scotland on the 1871 census for the first time.

Tried Ullrich/ or k and with one 'l' - so 4 variants.

For the 1871 census:

1871   ULLRICH   JOHN   M  28 KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1871   ULLRICH   JESSEY   F  24 KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1871   ULLRICH   JOHN   M  3  KILMARNOCK/AYR   
1871   ULLRICH   ANDREW   M  0  KILMARNOCK/AYR

and in Perth with one 'l' is

1871   ULRICH   JOHN   M 15 CAPUTH/PERTH


There are the only ones in Scotland on the '71 census.
