New Zealand Completed Requests / John Ross from Rosehall
« on: Sunday 09 April 06 01:26 BST (UK)  »
Looking to trace Family of John Ross c1830 who was born in or near Rosehall (possibly connections with Achnahannet) Ross-shire Scotland.
He went to New Zealand with his brother who I don't know the name of and he lived in some where called Rosehall.
He had a sister or Cousin called Margaret Ross born 1830, who married William Munro, and his family were in touch with mine until a decade or 2 ago.
I am confused about where my ggg gran Margaret's family came from and I hope some of John's family might solve my missing link.
If anyone knows anything that might help, or as any advice I would be delighted to here from them.
Thanks Shirley

Cork / Dineen, Kelly, Stanton
« on: Sunday 09 April 06 00:56 BST (UK)  »
I am looking to trace the family tree of my husbands Granny.
She was Mary Dineen, born 1913 in Co Cork. She came to England about 1940 and later married Ronald Ball from High Wycombe.
Her mother was a Hannah Kelly, and one of her Grandparents had the surname Stanton. I know the family or relations of the family once owned the ground Cork airport now stands on. We are sure that we have family are still in the area. Dineen might be connected to a Loch Shop and Tougler, Co Cork?
Does this ring bells with anyone?
Thanks

« on: Saturday 08 April 06 23:02 BST (UK)  »
I hate to here of old photo's/ postcards going in the bin, but can't rehome all of them.  :(
However if anyone has photos from the Highlands of Scotland, needing a new home, please let me know.
Anywhere around Inverness and north I will consider. Ross-shire, Sutherland and Caithness, are my main focus, be it places, events or people. :)
Thanks Shirley

Hi
I am looking for relatives or anyone who could tell me more about, Jamesina Calder, who died in Tain in 1975. She was born in Caithness, but I don't know where or when, but possably in the Wick area? She married William Fraser from Fearn who died in 1948 aged 51. She then later married Andrew Munro known as Andrew Co. They lived in Tain at the time of her death. She was my gg gran, and I would love to find out where her family came from, and how she came to live in Ross-shire! Thanks
