hi just sent for my grandfathers birth certificate father James Miskimmin mother Maryann Pollock yet the marriage between james and maryann puts her maiden name as o'neill...............confusing!!

The same family as mentioned in zion's post at the start of the thread?

my great grandmother was maryann miskimmin and great grand father was james miskimmin they lived in ballyvester near donaghadee  records list maryann's  maiden name as o'neill but on a mormon site they have her as pollock   my grand mother martha miskimmin married a robert pollock and my mother said they were cousins this could  explain it anyone with any info  please

If these records are all for the same couple then could Maryann have been married previously?

hi Perry isn't it I haven't received the certificate yet was speaking with the girl in the GRO, so I was thinking the same thing did she marry after James died??  If I find anything out will be in touch couldnt find your email address, but I remember you talking with me before about the same thing
regards
Barbara

Here's the 1911 census entry with Pollock grandchildren in household of Eliza Miskimmin:
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Down/Donaghadee_Rural/Ballyhay/264222

There seems quite an age range between the 3 Pollock children- Robert John (31), Samuel (19) and Mary (16).

Same family in 1901-
http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Down/Ballycross/Ballyhay/1255674/
Pollock children: Robert Jno (22), James (17), William (15), Samuel (12), Jane (12) and Mary (6).

If James Miskimmin married Maryann O'Neill in 1874 why are these children born c1879 and later called Pollock whilst in the Miskimmin household?

HI, I HAVE SEEN THAT AS WELL BUT ON THE 1911 CENSUS IT HAS MY GREATGRAND PARENTS SPELT WRONG IT HAS POLLICK  INSTEAD OF POLLOCK MY GRANDFATHER ROBERT POLLOCK DOES NOT APPEAR BECAUSE HE WAS IN THE ARMY AND OVERSEAS AT THE TIME SAME FIRST NAMES BUT TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE IF THEY HAD THE SAME FATHER SEEMS UNLIKELY TO GIVE THEM THE SAME FIRST NAME?  ZION

If you could try not to type in all capitals, that would be much appreciated - it looks like you are shouting at us!   :o ;D
