Miller help please-Poorhouse?
« on: Thursday 08 March 12 23:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi Guys
Can someone help with Glasgow records please?

I have a James Miller (Cooper) born 1811 Ireland.  1851 finds him Married to Rosanna (English) with james 17, John 15, Agnes 12, Catherine 9, Isabella 7, Rosanna 5 (All born Ireland) then Patrick 3 born Glasgow.

They lived at Garngad Rd

In 1861 james is listed as a Widower in the City Poorhouse then he dies there in 1862.
I know what happens to James but have no idea about the other children.

I can find no death for Rosanna on Scotlands People 1851-1861


I wondered if someone could look up the poor relief records at the Mitchell Library??  I am stuck down here in the Midlands & I thought it might give me an idea of where the rest of the family went. 

Are there records of people moving back to Ireland readily available??

I am really not sure how to trace them any further - I would love to know more about the Irish connection, I hope someone can help.

Many thanks

Karen F

I will have a look for you at some point when I make it into Glasgow.
Can you tell me --
James Miller (Cooper) is that his job title?
Rosanna (English) is that her maiden name or origin?

Karen,

Do you still need me to look at Poorhouse records? If so questions still apply!

Karin,

As you have not responded to the replies to your post I guess you have not ben able to check your emails yet.

I am going to Mitch tomorrow so if you still want a look up you will have to let me know.

Hi Ogleway- thanks for the offer - much appreciated - I hope you get this.  I have been working and studying so not able to look at your reply - sorry!!  if you can it would be great if you could look the family up.  It might be that the children were in the workhouse?
cooper is his job and English is her origin.  It must have been late when I typed that!!!

Many many thanks
