AHA! I did wonder if it was u. All these sign in names don't help!
I had, as it happens. just got the urge to open up my tree & poke a bit this week. Ended up on the Christies and thought Id check the Catholic registers & yes there they were!
I googled McG to Christie & up comes this thread. !
Anyhow, Ive also looked for entries for the two children she has called Moran. Cant find deaths for them. Cant find a marriage for her to a Moran but they may have been in Ireland. Cant find a death for a Moran in Midlothian to fit. Since Betsy was born in Scotland I wondered if Bridget's husband had died here. Cant see anything obvious in the census's for the 2 Moran children after 1851.
With that entry for John McG in the poorhouse...I wonder why not one family member came to witness him. Or why was he not living with family? Seems such a shame!
Anyway.. I must away & get ready for a days work. Have a great one & love to all.
Midlothian: Christie, McGonigal, McCartney, Irvine, Clark, Gray, Hooper,Bain,
Lanarkshire: Murray, Moore, Scott, McKirgan, Hamilton,,Johnston, Thompson, Dudgeon
