Michael Mellon b c 1849-1855 Glasgow or Ireland (diff census)
« on: Sunday 12 May 13 18:53 BST (UK) »
Hi,

My ggrandfather Michael Mellon b 1849-1855 supposedly Glasgow but maybe Ireland depending on census.

His father was James Mellon but mother unknown. Yet to find a birth.

He married my ggrandmother Jane Ann Donohoe (many variants) in 1891 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne as a widower.

His occupation was a French Polisher.

The 1891 census (prior to marrying my ggrandmother) has him living in Forster's Court, All Saints, N/Castle as a widower with 3 sons all born Scotland?
Michael c1879
John c1881
Patrick c 1885

I can't find anything to ascertain his existence prior to 1891 except for 1861 where he (if it's him) was with his parents James a Cabinet Maker & mother Hannah?
There are 2 siblings Ann & Catherine.

James (the father) was listed as a French Polisher on Michaels wedding cert. which leads me to think this is his parents.

However, I have nothing else regarding birth nor any other census for him. I have checked all his sons names on SP and came up blank.

I realise there are numerous variants as to the spelling so I am turning to roootschat in the hope that someone will recognise these names as I would be grateful to find out more about him.

I know he moved to Ireland with my ggrandmother sometime aft 1911 as he is with my ggrandmother in Newcastle-upon-Tyne still a French Polisher.

He died after 1931 in Belfast as he was still alive when my grandmother Annie Richardson Mellon was married & still a French Polisher.

Any advance on this would be most welcome.

Regards,

Anne Marie.

Thanks iluleah & Carole,

I have looked at the 1891 & the kids were born Scotland (no specifics). Ideally, I need to find what I think could be Michael 1st as I don't know his 1st wife's forname & haven't managed to find them to date.

As Michael was a widow in 1891 & his youngest son was b c1885, the wife died 1885 - 1891 but I haven't found a death yet.

Regards,

A. M.

The other thing, if Michael's mother was the Hannah I mentioned 1861, I haven't found her death either in England.
