hi there Megan,

Thx for your kind offer, i'm looking for these people in GILLESPIE, MACOUPIN COUNTY, ILLINOIS.

JAMES GALLAGHER DOB APPROX 1874-1892.

His brother

OWEN GALLAGHER DOB SAME AS ABOVE.

I know they were born in Bridgeton, Glasgow, Lanarkshire around this time, but not the exact years, I also do not know when they emigrated, I have the town they went to (Gillespie) from relations, but they are relying on memory, it may be wrong, one legend has James being voted the best dressed man in town, I think at around 1900-1930, as I say these are memories from childhood.
Their Parents were:

JAMES GALLAGHER DOB 1851

married Bridgeton, Glasgow,17 Jan 1873, to:

MARY QUINN DOB 1850

I understand there is not a lot of Info on these guy's, but anything you can find on them will be gratefully received.

Kind regards

Jim. Hendry

Hi Valerie,

Thanks for your quick reply, these two definatly look like the "Brother's Gallagher" of mine, now I have their ages I can search for their Birth Certs here in Scotland, they were brother's of my Grandmother, whose Birth cert I can't locate here, maybe I'll get a lead from where the brother's were born here in Scotland.

By the way I wonder if you could seach for the name of the local newspaper for Gillespie or Macoupin County, I'd like to see if James Gallagher is mentioned in it as the towns "best dressed man", if you can that is, I'm very grateful for the Info you have given me.

Thx for your help again.

Kind regards

Jim.

Hi Sue
There is a John Gatehouse, age 36 in Syracuse, NY on 1880 US census, available free through www.familysearch.org.

1900 US census shows:
Syracuse, Onondaga, NY
Gatehouse, John, Head, b Oct 1846, 53.Married for 19 years,
b England, parents born England,
to USA in 1870, is naturalized,
occupation: cartman.

Elizabeth, wife, b March 1853, 47,
b NY, parents born Germany
Mother to 1 child, child is living

Jessie, daugter, b April 1883, single, born New York


In 1910, the family is still in Syracuse, NY

John is now listed as 60, still says to USA in 1870
Elizabeth is 56

Jessie is married, surname given as BALER, age 26, married for 6 years, no children.

Can't yet see any of them on the 1920.

Hope this helps.

Hi can anybody see if they can find a marriage for

William Sacheus Morgan to Leolyn S Smith between 1900 and 1906, i think in was in Connecticut. Most likely year is 1904.


Also i have him in 1920 and 1930 censuses but not before.
But in the census it says he was first married when he was 26(1890/91) so could that be checked as well please.

He was born in Wales in 1864 and went to yale until 1895 I have him in Berkeley California in 1913 - 1960.


Thank you

Kev.
