Yes, thank you Sinann, definitely a lot to Glasgow, Dundee is less obvious though. Simon may have lived in Edinburgh though before he went to New York in 1910, so that's on the east coast too I suppose. It would be great to be able to find him in some directories or any other definite markers. His grandson didn't know anything about him, so I wonder if Simon was living away in those last few years. He was a paver in the States, I guess a lot more work in cities than in Donegal.

I have just located him on the Scotland's people site and ordered his death certificate (not cheap though), so that will be good to see. Thank you for finding him in Scotland!

You could have used 6 credits to view his death certificate right away.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Thank you, maybe I'll try and cancel the post order and do it as you suggest, it wasn't obvious that was an option.

Actually I can slightly redeem myself. When I went back to order the online info this morning, the credit option wasn't showing at first, I came out but went back to take a screenshot to check I wasn't going mad, then went back in and the credit option showed up. So I think the system might be a bit sensitive.

Anyway, all is good, I managed to cancel the paper version (thank you aghadowey) and now have the online info. So it appears that Simon probably wasn't based in Dundee, that's just where he went to hospital following his appendicitis and then got pneumonia. Seems he was living/staying with his son John in Cupar, Fife and working on a farm.
