Find Ancestors

Marion,
Thank you again, I hadn't seen that. Arthur street is the address in Greenock where Johns wife died and daughter Mary was born there. It might be a close with a number of different flats .

Not any help in finding who Lizzie is though but it's something lol

SandraE....Eh Hinny what we going to do with you...Mathilda Morgan was John's mother...died 1897 see my first post..!!

For ref. John and Brothers: parents David Morgan and Mathilda Miligan...(as per John's Death Cert)
David and Mathilda married Sept.1863 (same Parish)

1. JOHN MORGAN - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Birth: 06 AUG 1872 Middle-East-West Parishes, Greenock, Renfrew, Scotland

2. THOMAS MORGAN - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Birth: 12 MAR 1867 Middle Or New Parish, Greenock, Renfrew, Scotland

3. ANDREW MORGAN - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Birth: 03 JAN 1865 Middle Or New Parish, Greenock, Renfrew, Scotland

4. DAVID MORGAN - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Birth: 02 AUG 1869 Middle Or New Parish, Greenock,

SandraE....For ref:

BAILEY Phoebe Ann Bailey, aunt of John King, died at 5 Arthur Street, Greenock in Sept 1873.

So in theory unless this was a 'multi-dwelling' looks like the Morgan's/Campbells moved here after the 1881 Census when the Hansen family were listed as living at No.5.

Erin,
Thank you for the information, I reallly appreciate all the help everyone has given me.

Sandra

Oops, I replied before the last 2 postings came up.
Erin, I have Marys siblings - John Campbell c 1878 and Elizabeth (Lizzie c1881 and Marys date of birth that I have is May 30th 1873.
These Campbells are a nightmare.

SandraE....
Your more than welcome....
Just so long as we are not giving you info.you already have...
Scotlands People is the key....but is pay per view

We crossed en route to the thread....
Yes Marys birth date corresponds with what I have sent...but those are the children listed with parents Wm.and Agnes Campbell...you think you have problems now..wait until you are after going over the water to Ireland....

Marion and Erin,
What a lot of info you two have found, thank you so much.

Sandra

Erin,
I've given up on the Ireland ones of which I have loads of, they ALL seem to have originated from Ireland in my family lol

SandraE...This is all freely accessable...just a case of sorting it all out....But your more than welcome...

Christine

Christine,
It's only freely available if you know what you're doing and I certainly don't have much of a clue. My daughter Amanda started this family tree and gave up on it, so I have taken over but I'm not doing very well, it's all trial and error with me (mostly error) Lol.
I really do appreciate all your help, thank you and thank you to Marion as well.

Sandra

Evening SandraE.....Dont despair...its a long slow process in most cases and you just have to look at all the messages on the boards to realise you cant do it over nite...You have done really well so far but at some stage you will have to consider buying some Certs. to confirm you are on the right trail !!!!
I have sent you a PM (personal message) .

Christine,
Thank you very much.
I have bought quite a few certs from SP and I have also viewed a lot on there, but some of the writing is very old and unreadable.
Thank you so much for all your help.

Sandra

Sandra

I presume you know how to zoom in etc,helps with reading.
If the cert is really bad contact SP
If you print them out its easier to read too.

You probably know all that anyway lol

Marion

Marion, I know about zooming in but I didn't know I could contact SP about it. Thank you again.

Elizabeth Reilly Campbell was born on 22 August 1900 address 5 Arthur Street Greenock. The register shows the birth as illegitimate the mother Elizabeth Campbell. The birth was registered by the childs grandmother Agnes Campbell. Now for the interesting bit there is a Register of Corrected Entries which states that the father is a Robert Campbell jnr of 5 Regent St Greenock. Elizabeth obv raised the action in court and it was upheld. Elizabeth is noted as a dressmaker and Robert an apprentice boilermaker
