Hello
Been trying to break long standing brick wall in relation to my paternal great great grandparents...

# Daniel Millan Marble Stone Dresser
# Dianah Millan maiden name Sheridan

Both died sometime before April 1889 from their daughter's Mary Ann Millan's marriage certificate in Dundee.. where she worked as a Sack Machinist marrying William Webster Calender Worker.. when they were 21 and 26... from her DC I know she was born in 1868... I think she was born in Coreside in England...but can't recall where I found this out...

I have tried Family Search... ScotlandsPeople and GRO sites but no luck at all in finding any records of their deaths..

Would love to be able to complete this line on my paternal branch of the family tree..
Any assistance would be gratefully received.

Regards
MarkW

It is the 1891 census transcript that says Mary Ann’s place of birth was Coreside, England
Have you seen the original?

I wonder where that was?  Suspect it might really say Carlisle
Was she still alive for the 1921?  What does that say?

You only say you don’t have the deaths of Daniel and Dianah.
Do you have any other information?  Marriage? Census?

  Who were the witnesses at Mary Ann’s marriage?

Could this be the family in 1881

Daniel   Melon   Head   Married   Male   42   1839   General labourer   Ireland
Dinah   Melon   Wife   Married   Female   32   1849   Wife   England
Mary   Melon   Daughter   -   Female   13   1868   Scholar   England
John   Melon   Son   -   Male   9   1872   Scholar   England
Daniel   Melon   Son   -   Male   0   1881   -   Lochee, Forfarshire (Angus), Scotland


If so, perhaps this is Daniel born 1881’s birth??

MILLEN
DANIEL
SHERRINGTON
M
1881 282 / 5 / 2 Lochee

His death

MELLON DANIEL 9
SHERINGTON
M, 1890 282 / 5 / 147 Lochee

Added…another child, and yet another spelling.

MELEN FRANK
SHERRINGTON
M 1875 282 / 5 / 210 Lochee

He died age 3
MELEN FRANK
3
SKERRINGTON
M 1877 282 / 5 / 169 Lochee

Scottish birth certificates show the date & place of parent’s marriage. Or at least, they should. I’ve known them to be wildly fabricated.  It would be good to know if both these births gave the same information. See reply #4

Dinah Mallon's other surname is indexed as Haddington! See screenshot. The certificate should tell you her husband's name and whether or not he was still alive.

Could Daniel have died in Glasgow? See second screenshot.

Was Dinah born in Carlisle? See third screenshot. Mother's maiden surname is Routledge.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

I reckon Dinah in Carlisle too Forfarian

There  is a baptism Burgh by Sands 27 May 1849, daughter of Robert & Ann Sherrington

From census & births it seems Ann was Ann ROUTLEDGE and born in Scotland

Cannot readily find a marriage for Robert & Ann

In 1871

Daniel, Dinah & Mary are in Botchergate, Carlisle  and their surname is MELVILLE!
So..this birth. Perhaps. 

MELVIN, MARY  ANN   MMN    SHERRINGTON 
GRO Reference: 1869  M Quarter in CARLISLE  Volume 10B  Page 441

And this might be John who was in the 1881 census

MELVILLE, JOHN       SHERRINGTON 
GRO Reference: 1871  S Quarter in CARLISLE  Volume 10B  Page 449

Added to say, the 1871 Daniel says he was born Tyrone, but it is dittoed from the Irish family next door, so care needed there.
