Mary Ellen McLean
« on: Wednesday 12 March 08 15:42 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for the death of Mary Ellen McLean nee Brennan married to Thomas Mclean, she is in the 1861 Scottish census, age about 36 estimated birth 1825 and born in Ireland. She must have died between 1861 and 1868 because Thomas married again in 1868. At the time of the census they stayed in Inverkip Clift Cottage Inverkip. I can't find her death anywhere can you help?

Hi Heaross

Her death must have been after 1863. Two births showing for them:

1. DONALD BRENNAN MCLEAN  Birth: 12 MAR 1861 Inverkip, Renfrew, Scotland
2. JAMES HENRY MCLEAN Birth: 27 JUL 1863 Inverkip, Renfrew, Scotland

Thomas looks to have married in Argyll (Campbeltown Flora McLean). By 1871, the family is living in Largs Ayrshire if I'm looking at the right one.

Cry I've just found these deaths:

1   1860   MCLEAN   DONALD MORRICE   BRENNAN       M   3   INVERKIP   /RENFREW   567/01 0015   
2   1863   MCLEAN   JAMES HENRY   BRENNAN       M   0   INVERKIP   /RENFREW   567/01 0032

Unfortunately, like you I couldn't find her death. That was searching for a female M*lean, other name B*, b. 1825 5yrs +/-.  Maybe someone else will be able to track her down.

Regards.

Hi Monica, you're having the same problem as me , she must be somewhere, but where. The death would have to be registered in those days, wouldn't it. I don't know where to try now.  Pat

Hi Pat

I've had another look for Mary Ellen and nothing at all is showing for her even leaving out her maiden name.  Given that Thomas was in the coast guard service and eldest son looks to be born in England (did the marriage also take place there?) I wonder if Thomas and Mary Ellen may have been away from Scotland between 1863-68.  Is there are reference sources to the placements of coast guards? I saw something some time ago on RootsWeb and now I can't find it  Undecided

Nothing shows for Mary Ellen's death on freebmd not to say it wouldn't be there on the full index but perhaps a possibility.

Hi Monica, Mary Ellen and Thomas's marriage 16/01/1848 in st. james Grain in Kent where the 2 Children were born. As a family they were all over the place in both Thomas's marriages. I think Mary was born in Kerry Ireland and came over here when young, her father's was James I got that from the info about on the notice of marriage. I don't know where else to try and I hate being stumped but I think I'll just have to expect  i'm not going to get this one   Pat

Not that it helps with finding Mary Ellen's death, this is the site (Genuki, not RootsWeb) I was referring to re Coast Guards with an entry for Thomas: www.genuki.org.uk/big/Coastguards/M-O.html
