On Annie Christie’s birth, marriage and death certificates it says mother Elizabeth devlin, do you think that was a married name and her maiden name was actually haggarty.

No on certificates her mother's maiden name is Devlin I would say Elizabeth Devlin was never married to James Christie ..A marriage has never been found in Ireland for this couple and no date for the marriage just January which is unusual

I found this on another tree
Elizabeth Poland devlin kenovan haggarty 1841 Ireland to dec 1894 Patrick
Husbands
John kenovan 1840
Michael black 1840
James haggarty 1857 to 1892
Children
Elizabeth black devlin 1865 to 1933
Ann devlin or haggarty 1870
Margaret devlin 1875 to 1940
Mary devlin or haggarty 1881 to 1921
Catherine devlin or haggarty 1886 to 1903

Then I have Annie Christie 1869 to 1929
Husband Robert Mcinally
Help me to where the Christie fits in please. Did elizabeth have a child with james Christie, it says on Annie’s birth certificate that they married in Jan 1868, which would be in between Elizabeth & ann.
hope this makes sense.

First of all don't copy anything from trees unless they have the original certificates from Scotland's People ..I did see the tree you were talking about

You have the right birth certificate for your Annie Christie with mother as Elizabeth Devlin James Christie is most probably the father but no wedding certificate  ???

As I said before Annie Christie can not be found on census records as a Christie but on other records as a Haggarty with a mother Elizabeth Devlin ..Elizabeth Devlin has had a few children and been single but used the name Haggarty on census records ..Her death was registered by her daughter Elizabeth Black Young and she was single

My great gran parents Annie Christie born 18 dec 1869 to 29 oct 1929

Annies parents, my great great gran parents are james christie and Elizabeth devlin

Do you think this could be a possible Catholic baptism for Annie Christie in 1873 at St Peter Glasgow?
or
Is it a different Ann Christie with parents named as James Christie and Eliza Devlin?

The year 1869 is correct but the month is Oct and day 29th ???

Possible brother named James

All the other baptisms on this page have lawful written after the Childs christian name Ann & James are blank

I wish there were occupations given for father and an address

Elizabeth Haggarty       age 30 born Ireland wife
Ann Haggarty              age 11 born Partick daughter
Margaret  Haggarty      age 6 born Partick daughter


This appears to be the above James Haggerty on the 1871 census he has the same occupation

Relationship:   Son
Where born:   Partick, Lanarkshire
Address:   21 Castlebank St
Mary Haggerty Head   34   born Ireland
Catherine Haggerty dau   11 Mo   Born Partick

Their mother looks to be mn Devlin, father named Charles although have not found a baptism for James b1858 & Mary b1866 to confirm same mn as Catherine & Charles
