Hi listers.
Ive spent years trying to link up a John Turner from the 81 census in Assynt Sutherland living in Hugh Mc Farlane household ..
nephew to Hugh McFarlane he was a seaman . born Glasgow. Born about 1860,
He was on the Assynt Census along with Hugh McFarlane John McFarlane brother And Alexander McFarlane who I now know to be my husbands Grand father
Later I found John Turner getting married to a Jessie McLeod 1882 in Glasgow.
much to my joy
John Turners parents were John Turner and Elizabeth McFarlane . McLean /Turner no carmichial but deff still elizabeth McFarlaneI have marriage cert of Elizabeth Carmichael 31 Widow l odging house keeper parents John McFarlane Boat builder and Effy McFarlane Deceased M/S Black.to a
Duncan McLean widower 38 parents Samuel Mc Lean deceased and looks like Julia Mc Culloch witnessed Mary ,Mcleod and Mary Mc lean.
I have just found the prev marr of Elizabeth carmichael and her husband is
Donald Carmichael born lissmore.
1861 62 Water St Glasgow
Donald Carmichael is 30yrs Lissmore Captain on Lighter on Canal (house 2 rooms with windows)
Elizabeth Carmichael 23 born Ross of Mull
Euphimia C 5 yrs Ross of Mull
later 71 Euphimia is a Turner ? aged 15 years .
Elizabeth McFarlane/CARMICHAEL/MCLEAN/TURNER
was Aunt to the Alexander on the 81 Census son of Hugh McFarlane his grand parents being the the John and Effy McFarlane had been misheard by the Enumerator as Born Ireland instead of Highlands Anyone have links to these folk ?
As you can see it had really thrown me off track the Ireland peice in the 1901 census. and as he hadnt married my husbands grannie I no way of fetching his back too effy and John McFarlane other than his death cert which again was wrong as his mother was down as Mary Cameron his grannies name INSTEAD OF Mary LAMONT.daughter of Angus Lamont School teacher and Margaret Cameron
Alexander was only a small boy when his mum died in 1864
Anyone link to any of these folk please>
