The Shields Kin of Glasgow post 1910

[f1rocco]

Thanks to all Im pretty sure we have some great data/names to go back to around 1710 with my line of Shields.....

But for a while now I have been shut down with new names and leads.....I miss the natural high of a new lead and would like to try and find some living people to share the info...

Below are some names of the last census of my/our line in Glasgow...   


Any leads or advice would be great....Thanks much

Ok - how about starting at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk and the death of Arthur Jabez Shields.  Newsagent and Tobacconist married to Jane Hutchison Thomson.  Died 17 July 1958 at the Victoria Infirmary Glasgow. Usual address 98 Ormonde Avenue Muirend.  Advised by his son Kenneth A Shields.
Marriage: Hillhead Glasgow 1924 Arthur    SHIELDS   Jane Hutchieson THOMSON      HILLHEAD
Death:1987 Jane Hutchieson SHIELDS

Unfortunately Kenneth A Shield died in 2000 but you should be able to order up a copy of the death registration and that should show the name and address of the person advising the death.

and now Mary Jane Lucas

Died 1952 Mary Jane SHIELDS    62   

married to Harold Holmes Sheppard Newsagent 30 October usual address 1 Orchard Lane Giffnock father is listed as a Stationer advised by son Fred G Sheppard 225 Fenwick Road Giffnock (Which is now the address of an Accountant and Italian Restaurant)

Birth : 1922 Frederick George   SHEPPARD Cathcart

Mr. Peter Shields

Married

Ms. Catherine McKeown

on  Married: 23 Dec 1923 in Holytown(Glasgow maybe?)

Hello,

I was doing some research when I cam across this information re Peter Shields and Kathleen McKeown, married in Holytown 23 Dec 1923. Peter was born 1895 +/- 1 year. He appears on the 1901 census aged 6 living with his family at Carlisle Road, Chapelhall. I hope this is helpful.

Hi Jason,

  Awesome read on Winnie Glanston! My mom (karenbeta) told me she found this. This is so helpful as I only really have a lot of my father's line since my maternal grandfather passed when I was in middle school. I have been reading all your posts and have learned a lot. Have you found much info on the line post 1910?

Have you found much info on the line post 1910?

All I have on your Alexander is a few addresses in Rochester NY up to 1928.. If I had to guess he left for Florida in 1928 or 29.. Maybe due to the Great Depression and no work..

I seem to think I read he came to the US from Scotland and then went back again and returned with his brother to Rochester in 1910.. I want to think he was in PA in 1909 and maybe with his future wife.. not sure..

But I'm not so sure.. because when I went to search this again years ago I couldn't find what I thought I previously seen on the ellis island website..

I also may have read prior to him living full time in Rochester in the 1920's he had some connection in Pennsylvania where he may have lived a few years.. This could be what I confused with the ellis island piece..


After awhile your brain goes to mush after researching and reading all this.. lol

None of this was possible without the help from the others here on rootschat
