Mallighan, Mallicham or Mallachin from Edinburgh.
« on: Sunday 30 August 09 21:31 UTC (UK) »

I am trying to trace records of any kind for a Margaret b. circa 1875 surname as above (three different spellings from Birth and marriage certificates.  She lived in the Gateshead area of Durham but on 1911 census said that she was born Scotland, resident of Edinburgh.  Her father was named John (from both of her marriage certs.

This is a really helpful 1881 census - not!

It's the nearest match to the surname but I have my doubts its the right one

In 1891 - the above Margaret is living with her grandmother so if you have her on the English 1891 - it's the wrong entry

She did not get married (1st time) until 1904 in Gateshead.  She had a son in 1899 (Gateshead) but I cannot find them on the 1901 census for the area.  She appears on the 1911 census with her second husband and family,2 sons and 1 daughter.
Did not know anything about her until 1911 census as we knew her sons d.o.b. as 1900 and he seems to have taken her first husbands surname  (all very confusing)  no wonder I could not find my poor old grandad!!!!
As I said in first post the surname is spelled three different was  Mallachin on birth cert of son Charles and the other two on her marriage certs.

Just remembered, my father can remember my grandad saying that he played as a child down a street just off Princes Street Edinburgh  ( when they were visiting for a day)  so he was probably either living there for a while or visiting his mothers family.

I think CaroleW is correct in discounting the Leith record....Leith was not part of Edinburgh in 1881.
