Hi
I know i'm probably getting annoying now with this family but I have a William Allan born 1853 coatbridge, lanarkshire. His father robert dies in denny in 1885 and his son is living there in 1881 with his wife georgina. He is a colliery manager (like his father) and his address is Dryburgh, Denny.
Only trouble is i can't find them after this  any one got any ideas pleas?
thanks, caroline xx

Caroline
Possibility that Georgina may have died:
1889 ALLAN GEORGINA TAYLOR F 28 DENNY /STIRLING 476/01 0019
Age slightly out on her age in 1881, but you know the way of these things. If it is the right entry, then likely William re-married and may be showing in later censuses with a different wife.
Regards.
Monica

yup, that was her.
what a shame, she died of breast cancer at 28. Odd thing though is that the informant was the undertaker never seen that before, has anyone else?

well i've managed to find out that they had at least one child born in 1883 denny apparently called Genny Gemmell Allan. Thing is I really can't find William or his daughter anywhere which makes me wonder if he emigrated? But you'd think with a job like a collliery manager he wouldn't leave it but maybe he was broken hearted with his wife dying so young

Hello Caroline,
I wonder if it would help you if you went on to the Fife Board where I have written very many postings about various families - including the Allans. A bit of a long shot, but, who knows?
Kind Regards,
Tom.
