Lookinf For. STEWARTS/McGINLAYS

[Ramsay Stewart]

Ok Fellow Rooters  I have moved my search for My great Great Grandparents to Londenderry Possibly Coleraine. This might be a bit of a mix up but plz bare with me lol...
Ok the names I'm looking for are Joseph McKinley And Wife Helen/Ellen Stewart, Or it could be Joesph Stewart & Ellen McKinley... The reason for the Query  is My Great Grandfather John Stewart came to Scotland Govan Lanark In the Mid 1870's as did many from Ireland... That's all i know He was from Ireland.. Now when he was Married in Govan 1879 to Maryann White. he was married using the Name  John McKinley, and his parents were listed as Joseph McKinley & Helen Stewart. Now he was a wanted man at the time he left Ireland... So he later moved to Port Glasgow then changed his name to John Stewart Using his Mothers Maiden name... which we have been led to believe Because it was thought maybe someone had caught up with him.. But now im thinking  Maybe it was changed at the start so he wouldn't be found.. then Reverted back to his Original name of Stewart.... Can any one sort this out and Find Joseph & Ellen... Now on Johns Death Cert: his parents are listed as  Joseph Stewart & Ellen McKinley....
I have found Birth in Londonderry for Hannah Stewart 07 Sept 1965 her parents were Joseph Stewart & Helen McKinley... Can anyone check this out for me please Maybe a Census somewhere for them....


 Please any help or lead would be very greatful thanks ... Ramsay

The birth you found was for Londonderry city:
Hannah Stewart born 7 Sept.1865 Londonderry (city) (page 197 in civil register)- parents- Joseph Stewart & Ellen Mcginley
also-
Charles Stewart born 7 Nov.1863 Beith, Ayrshire- same parents
   
There's also an extracted birth where the original names fit-
Isabella Stewart born 16 May 1859 Neilston, Renfrewshire- parents- Joseph Stewart & Helen Mckinlay
and Mary (1857), Helen 1867

Suggest checking for all these children in Scottish census records to determine which if any might be related to you.

Thanks for your Help aghadowey any lead is a good lead right now lol.... Might lead me knowhere but At least I got there hahaha... Thanks again.... John would have been born; about 1856.... going by his marriage just in case anyone stumbles Upon him....  We have always believed he was from Donegal i don't know why but some side so years back But it is said he was a Poor mans Lawyer and he stood up for people who couldn't afford a Lawyer back in the day, and it was told that he had Killed a Solider for raping a Young 15 year old girl defending her honor. And had to leave Ireland maybe there could be a record of this somewhere new cutting!!!... It was also said his picture hung in Dublin Castle 1870's John McGinlay/Stewart I don't know what id would have been used then....
