Martha Monteith / Mungall

[Monty59]

Help wanted please:

Martha MONTEITH (b. 1893) was born in Ireland, Co. Donegal.

She was still in Ireland in 1911 (have got a copy of the 1911 Irish census).

However, I'm trying to find out what happened to her after that.

We think she went to Scotland (date & location unknown) and married somebody called MUNGALL.

Can anybody help me with dates / names / locations please?

Thank you

Hi

The Scotland's People web site ( www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk )  has a marriage for Martha Monteith to a Hugh Mungall in Blythswood, Glasgow in 1919.

The same site has the death  of a Martha Mungall (other surnames Monteith) ~

1970 Aged 77 in Blackridge, West Lothian.

Hi Gadget

Thank you for this.

Do you know if they had any children?

[Gadget]

That's a bit more difficult because I can't do a search on Mumgall/Monteith, just Mungall.

I'll have a quick look.

Sorry - just too many Mungalls - 48 between 1919 and 1930 in Lanarkshire but none in Blythewswood.  No obvious names stand out either.


What was her mother's maiden name?

Answering my own question - Martha Kane.

Martha was 23 in 1919.

Hugh's address was Linlithgow so I'll check that side

Hi Gadget

Really appreciate your help on this.

Martha's mother was Martha KANE. Martha was 1 of 8 children. Siblings were called James, William, John, Thomas, Annie, Elizabeth (Lizzy) and Donald.  Donald was Martha's twin and their mother died whilst giving birth to them.

Grandparents names also include Robert and Jane.
