Information from Falkirk

[Morney]

Hi momac72


The newspaper date is 14 Jan 1903.

 There was another child Hugh who died in 1896 aged one, I believe he and Annie are burried in the same place. 

Josephine was born in 1901 her birth certificate show the family in Bathgate.  There is also a record of baptism in bathgate.  You can also find her on the 1911 census in Smyllum Orphanage.

You were right about Mary she died age 26 in Jan 1920 the matron was the informant on the death certificate.

There is a very sketchy baptism record at Bathgate Immaculate Conception Church for a George parents name H Levat.  I dont have any more information on that.

Sorry to hear we are not related. I see the copyright images were removed so it is difficult to sent you the complete information, but I will answer any further questions if I can.

Just also noticed Mary McColgan had another child Josephine in 1912.

Hi momac72

Sorry gave you wrong information again. Trying to do too many things at once. Rosina was aged 18 when she died in 1915 the informant was her uncle Joseph Devoy.  Her address was Orchard St Cameleon and his was Thistle St Cameleon. 

I think Josephine McColgan Mary's daughter may have died aged 4 in Falkirk although I have not looked at the death certificate which is available on Scotlands people.

Many thanks again for this information Morney, you've given me a lot of leads to look into, I very much appreciate you sharing your research in this way.  Good luck with your research also, and I'll be back in touch if I come across anything that i think may be of interest to you.

best wishes

The Falkirk poor records are lost, the archive staff live in hope they will turn up but as yet noone knows what happened to them
