McKirdy index lookup please
« on: Wednesday 17 January 07 06:59 GMT (UK) »

Is there SKS who has the McKirdy Index and could check for the death of Euphemia Burton in 1868 in Alloa please. I'm hoping this Euphemia was born 1815, the daughter of Martin Burton and Margaret Murray. I don't know if she married or not.

Many thanks
Jan

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the info - yes, that's the family. I haven't worked out who Mancy is yet :-)  Margaret was a widow when she died in 1859. Her marriage in the IGI has her husband's name as HALLIBURTON. I haven't been able to find them in 1851.

It's Euphemia's death I'm looking for. In 1861 she is living with her niece as Euphemia ARD. In 1881 an Euphemia HERD was a witness at her great niece's wedding. I was hoping the McKirdy index would give me her husband's name.

Regards
Jan

What is the 'McKirdy Index'? I'm interested because I have McKirdy ancestors. I have an Agnes Sulferage whose mother was a McKirdy. Joan

Hi Joan,

It's an index to Clackmannan (and some other) deaths 1855-1875, prepared by Wayne McKirdy of NZ, available on microfiche.

Welcome to Rootschat---a good questionm I was about to ask when you beat me to it. I googled it,

The "McKirdy Index" Death Records - an "Analytical Index to the Statutory Registers of Death for Scotland"

Hope that helps, it is not a McKirdy family index.

Good morning,

The McKirdy index - I belong to the website, but I cannot do 'look-ups' for others.

This site was set up a couple of years ago by Wayne McKirdy of New Zealand.  He is indexing the info from Death certificates. The index contains the main info - except for the Death Date. actual address, Cause of Death & the Rego date.

So far, he has indexed:
Bute                    1855 - 1875
Clackmannan      1855 - 1875
Kinross                1855 - 1875
Lanark                 1855 - 1858
Peebles               1855 - 1875
Perth                   1855 - 1857
Selkirk                 1855 - 1875
Sutherland          1855 - 1875

The site is:  www.mckirdyindex.co.nz

I have no personal involvement with the index, just a user from way back.

Yes, the death of Euphemia Burton is shown on my index. It also has her parents, husband's name, and the name of a niece.

The entry can be viewed at www.mckirdyindex.co.nz

Hope this helps.
