Cardy/Linn
« on: Tuesday 16 June 09 09:50 UTC (UK) »

Not sure if this is the correct board---the areas are Troqueer and Maxwelltown.
I am after any info onmy Cardy/Cardie Family.T is the info I know.
John Married Elizabeth Linn in Dumfries c1822,they were both born Ireland,their children were
Agness c1824 it would appear she married someone called Rafferty,one known child Margaretc1845.
Margaret c1826 [my line] married william Bottomley later known as Scofield
Samuel c1829
John c 1831
Robertc1834
William c1836
Any info very much appreciated but I am hoping someone will be able to find me the deaths of John snr,he doesn't appear to be on the 71 census and when Elizabeth died in 1880 she was down as widow.The death of Agness Linn down on the 41 cencus as Agness Smyly down as 80 ? on the 41 census

The IGI has an extracted marriage:
Agnes CARDY and John RAFFERTY married 10 May 1844, Dumfries
And children to those parents on IGI:
Robert 1856 Dumfries
Thomas 1860 Troqueer
Agnes 1860 Troqueer
Samuel 1863 New Abbey Kirkcudbright
Elizabeth 1866 Dumfries

There are the following in the "Dumfries Workhouse  for Paupers" in  Dumfries St Michael,1861:
Line 10: Agnas CARDIE 52, pauper, b Dumfries
Line 11 : Agnas RAFFERTY 52, pauper, b Dumfries
Line 12: Michael RAFFERTY 11, Pauper, b Dumfries
Line 13: Robat RAFFERTY 4, Pauper, b Dumfries
Line 14: Henry RAFFERTY 3, Pauper, b England
Line 15: Agnes RAFFERTY 2 mths, Pauper, b Kirkcubdrightshire, Parish Troqueer
Line 16: Thomas RAFFERT 2 mths, Pauper, b Kirkcubdrightshire, Parish Troqueer
Line 20: Margaret RAFFERTY 16, Pauper, b Dumfries
Line 21: William RAFFERTY 7, Pauper, b Dumfries

I suspect Line 10 and 11, are one and the same person - ie: Agnes RAFFERTY nee CARDY and her age should be 32, not 52.

I noticed that on the 1851 census in Troqueer the birthplace of dau Margaret (your line) is England. 

Name: Margaret Cardy
Age: 25  
Place of birth: England  
Parish Number: 882  
Civil parish: Troqueer  
County: Kirkcudbrightshire  
Street Address: Milligan Close  
Occupation: House Servant
 
This also is the stated birthplace of her sister Agnes as seen in 1871. 

Perhaps their parents were married in England as well?

This is Agnes and family in 1871:

Name: Agnes Rafferty
Age: 49 
Approx Birth Year: 1822 
Relationship to head: Wife 
Place of birth: England  

Reg district: Troqueer 
Civil Parish: Troqueer 
Town: Maxwelltown 
County: Kirkcudbrightshire 
Street Address: 35 Glasgow St
 
Members of the household are:
John Rafferty age 54 
Agnes Rafferty age 49 
Michael Rafferty age 20 
William Rafferty age 17 
Robert Rafferty age 15 
Henry Rafferty age 13 
Thomas Rafferty age 10 
Samuel Rafferty age 8 
Margt Rafferty age 26 
Margt Rafferty age 2 
 
Daughter Margaret goes on to marry James  Donnelly in the next year. 

1872 DONNELLY JAMES RAFFERTY MARGARET DUMFRIES /DUMFRIES 821/00 0047

So it's the boys of John CARDY(CARDIE)  and Elizabeth LINN(LYNN)
who seem to just disappear after 1841....I haven't found any of them anyway!

Samuel b abt c1829
John b abt  1831
Robert abt 1834
William  abt 1836

With their trade - Loom weavers etc, and perhaps coming from a background of very humble means I would wonder if they like many others of that trade, immigrated to America, especially to Pennsylvania where there werea lot of Mill works.....
