look up offer - crawfordjohn death records

[GJ]

I have a book of crawfordjohn death records if anyone would like me to look anyone up.
They only go up to 1854.
Let me know
Caroline

Hello Caroline,
I have just discovered quite a few of my husband's ancestors are from Crawfordjohn. Thank you for the offer to look up death records there.
I am particularly intrested in Alexander SLOAN & Katherine SLOAN nee WILLIAMSON. I cannot find them on the 1841 census, and on one of their son's Thomas, death certificate it stated there were deceased, but I cannot find a death certificate for either of them. It is also possible Alexander's parents John SLOAN & Isobel SLOAN nee GRAHAM may have died there.
Another family if I am not asking to much John BARCLAY, I believe he died in 1849, and is buried with his wife Janet, I have her death certificate she died 16 May 1871.
The last family (so far) is the parents of Janet BARCLAY nee McGEORGE. from her death certificate they are listed as Walter McGEORGE & Helen McGEORGE  nee McLELLAN, both deceased in 1871. I have been unable to locate them on the 1841 census.
Hope I have not asked to much of you.
Many thanks for any assistance.

Hi Judith

No it'snot too many names, i like looking them up.  The more the merrier!

I'm afraid there are no Sloan's at all and there is no sign of Katherine Williamson.

The only Barclay is
Elisabeth Barclay, Wife of James Watson, died 18 Aug 1835 aged 68.  She was interred in Lamington churchyard. 
Maybe she could be  a relation?

How do you know John Barclay died in 1849? Maybe there is a clue to where he might be buried.

There are no McGeorges or Mclellans either I'm afraid.

Are there any other names you would like me to look for?

Hi

There is;

NAME: Catherine Wilson Lewis
AGE: 5yr 4mo
DATE OF DEATH: 25 Feb 1850
ABODE: Village (Crawfordjohn)
Daughter of Robert Lewis and Anne Gall, buried in this churchyard.

There are a lot of Galls, so if there are any other names you would like to look for, there are no more Lewises.

Caroline

Thanks for that !

I haven't looked into the Gall side yet so i don't know any more names yet, but i'm sure there will be a few buried there.
