McIntosh Finlay (Jock)
« on: Wednesday 01 October 08 14:21 BST (UK) »

Hi all
I am looking for information on Finlay McIntosh born 8 January 1901 in Inverness and moved to Australia in 1926. Father was James McIntosh and mother was Euphemia Vass. I think this information is correct on parents. Finlay was my Grandfather, I have no information about his family or why he moved to Australia.

Thanks

This looks a likely entry for Finlay in the 1901 census with the names you have:

James MacIntosh 27, Cattleman On Farm, Hunlly (?spl), Aberdeenshire
Euphemia MacIntosh 28, b. Nigg, Rossshire
James A MacIntosh 3, Fearn, Rossshire
Alexander MacIntosh 1, b. Kiltearn, Rossshire
Finlay MacIntosh 2 months, b. Kiltearn, Rossshire

Address: Ploughmans Cottage, Kiltearn, Ross & Cromarty

To give you an idea on counties and parishes within counties, have a look at:

Hi  Smiley

Is that two generation back from James and Euphemia?

It would very much depend on the dates. The marriage cert that I found in the message above would give you both their parents names (from Scotlands People)  and tracing these parents' deaths would probably give you their parents names or the IGI (www.familysearch.org ) might give information.

However, I'm not sure from your lastmessage which generationthat you're referring to  Undecided

Tell us what you have - full names, locations and dates and we will probably be able to help further  Smiley

Hi Mcaussie

I'm not sure where you obtained you information but it looks as if it was from BMDs (statuatory registration certs) and OPRs (Old Parish Records). Official (Statuatory) Registration began in Scotland in 1855 and certificates can be obtained via www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk.

Before that, we are reliant on the OPRs, which are the registers of the Church of Scotland,  and Monumental Inscriptions. Other sources are Wills and Kirk Sessions Records. All but the Kirk Sessions and the MIs are also on the Scotlands People site.

This thread gives you more information:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,24468.0.html

Living relatives can be traced but are more difficult. There was a recent thread on this but I can't find it at the moment  Undecided  I'll try more detailed searches and put the link up for you.


Please note that its Rootschat's policy not to post the names of living people:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,260815.0.html


Photographs - that's more difficult - do you  mean photos of people or the places?

Hi Gadget

I got my information at a website called www.familysearch.org, the details were all ready on there. I think it had a name and address of the person who gave this information, I will try and contact them and see what else they know.

Thanks a lot for all your help so far.
