Kreglin & Orr in Greenock.

[Kewtonia]

Hi
Ernest Charles Christopher Kreglin(ger) & his wife Clara Mary Hawkes moved from London to Greenock after 1914, with their children. It seems he had his mother & sister with him, as I have found the deaths of both in Greenock. Elise Kreglinger his sister in 1924, Katharina Kreglinger his mother in 1935.
I have been unable, so far to find marriages of the sons Ernest Gordon Kreglin & Herbert Charles Kreglin in either London or Scotland.

The daughter Olive Tina Rubin Kreglin born Woolwich 1908 married Donald Orr in Glasgow in 1928. Olive Tina Rubin's address was 1 Newark Terrace Lyle Road Greenock, Donald's looks like 25 Royal Street Greenock.

Clara Mary's death was registered in the Hilhead District of Glasgow in 1943 her address was given as 1 Newark Terrace Greenock.

Ernest Charles Christopher's death was registered in Greenock in 1953, his address was given as 28 Lyle Road Greenock. Informant was his son Ernest G Kreglin, address 28 Lyle Road Greenock.

I'm looking for info on all of these people & their descendants,  Clara Mary Hawkes was my gt gt Aunt.

Thanks Avro & to your wife,
I'll give it a go see what I can find out.

Orr seems to be a fairly common name in Scotland, from the number of them listed on GenesReunited.  I contacted everyone that had Orr's in Greenock, but, as usual, most of them didn't even bother to reply. Kreglin or  Kreglin(ger) are very unusual in the uk, hopefully anyone related will know that name after all it's not that far back in time.

  SUCCESS

Thanks to all who have tried to help in my search for descendants of Ernest Charles Christopher Kreglin & Clara Mary Hawkes.

I was contacted by their gt grandson a couple of days ago, seems they put Kreglin in google & came up with my posts. (everywhere)

To anybody searching for a lost link in their family, I suggest you leave posts as many places as you can.

Cheers
Chris
