Who are these people?
« on: Friday 23 October 15 15:32 BST (UK) »
Hi, in a family grave in Scotland are the following people........Jane Hoey or Bell died 14/6/1906
Janet B Young (nee Bell)died 7/7/1909
Jane Sloan(nee McLeod) died 9/12/1912
William Lochrie died 26/10/1916 age 43
John Young died 8/11/1929 age 75
In 1891 John Young age 36 is staying at 9 Twechar rows with his wife Janet B Young age 31 both b Antrim,they are still there in 1901.
A tree on a commercial site has Johns parents as William Young and Jane Hoey,Howie etc
William Lochrie (b Linlithgow) married a Martha ?Bell they are in Twechar in 1901.
Jane McLeod is also in Twechar in 1911 with her son in law and daughter.(Isaac and Martha Kennedy)she also registered the birth of John Youngs son John in 1876 in Antrim.She is my gg grandmother but I havent a clue how she is or if related to any of these people.
The owner of the grave was a James Bell brother of Janet B Young.
Any help greatfully appreciated.
Jane McLeod (Sloan) stayed in /near Kilnock and there are 2 possible  births for children of William and Jane Hoey in Connor.I do not need any information for Jane McLeod just help in trying to find a connection with these people.Thanks Jasiain

Possibly very easy to sort out with Scottish records. Daughter Jane born 1891 Kirkintillock (parents John Young & Janet Bell)- her birth certificate should list date and place of parents' marriage, their marriage certificate will give you more details, etc.
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XTXG-QZ2

You can use Family Search, Scotland's People and GRONI to fill in gaps.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

if you look up in Griffiths valuation at http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/ you will have a date for each person more info and a map ref if you are lucky eg Castlegore
Finally i was going to check all against the irish census 1901 in case a link or two of more irish links show up.

 Good luck

Over the past few months I have managed to work out who these people are,still no firm conformation as to how they relate to any of my family other than the John Young mentioned whose mother was Jane Sloan.(Taken from death cert on SP.)Possible sister in law to Jane Sloan nee McLeod.
To confuse things further,in the same graveyard there is a lair owned by a Maggie Bell in which are my great grandparents and 2 great aunts.Isaac Kennedy and his wife Martha Sloan.Their 2 children Annie and Jeanie.Information taken from the records at the graveyard state that Jeanie interred 1921 was a cousin to Maggie Bell,but when her father dies the relation to Maggie is given as sister in law.I feel I have spent the past 6 months going round in circles.I dont want any information on the Kennedys, I just want to know who Maggie Bell is?  ;D  ;D
Would someone whisk a Maggie Sloan from somewhere ;)If Martha had a sister Margaret she must have been born before 1864 as I have her brothers and sisters after that date.All born Toome/Ahoghill,Antrim.I can find no marriage in Ireland or Scotland.(Marthas father Alexander Sloan)

To confuse things further,in the same graveyard there is a lair owned by a Maggie Bell in which are my great grandparents and 2 great aunts.Isaac Kennedy and his wife Martha Sloan.Their 2 children Annie and Jeanie.Information taken from the records at the graveyard state that Jeanie interred 1921 was a cousin to Maggie Bell,but when her father dies the relation to Maggie is given as sister in law.

You need to check who gave what info. as the info. on ANY death cert. is only as good as the informant's knowledge & very often not correct.

People don't realise what info. is needed when registering a death until they get there & are confronted with the questions i.e. some of it will be guess work if they are unsure.

Annie
South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Canada:- Callaghan, Cumming, MacPhee
