MIs in DUNFERMLINE Lays Road Cemetery

[amg2512]

Hi Norrieg

Would appreciate a lookup for Morrison (I know it's a common name)  To be honest I don't know where in Dunfermline they could be, they are a long line of shoe & boot makers usually called Thomas, the last ones death recorded 1897.

Sorry to be so vague
Many thanks
Alison

Hi NorrieG
Do you have anything on a Jane Conquer/Conquergood/Good, widow of James Nellies, shown as living at Brucefield Feus in the 1861 Census.

Thanks

Hi Allison  can't see any Thomas Morrison for Dunfermline

Who died in 1897 who was his Parents & his wife as you know
the death date you can find the rest on Scotlands people

Hi Norrieg

Yes I have death details, but nothing makes reference to where they may be buried,   all I can tell is that some of them lived on Rolland street and Moodie street (not that helps in the slightest!)

Thomas Morrison married to Rachel Anderson she died 1897.  Thomas' father also Thomas Morrison died 1879, he was  married to Ann Gaylor and finally his grandfather, another Thomas (he was buried in Bradford) his wife was Ann Hodge who died I think 1814..

The eldest generation were poor by all accounts but they were also grandparents to Andrew Carnegie who I feel in later life once successful would have erected something.

Clutching at straws... again.
Thanks for checking

Hi Alison  I am not sure how much useful info would. Be included but Andrew Carnegie family history and life story are held by the western pa historical society. It might be worth a try it is suppose to include his parents life in Scotland. If you pm me I can give you the address you never know what the cost of a letter and. Postage might find for you

Hi Norrie

Thanks so much for checking out the Morrisons for me.   Margaret Weir is definately mine married to William Gaylor Morrison.   Not so sure on the Mary Ann Morrison although age at death is bang on and there is a Mary M Thomson staying with William in the 1901 census as a visitor (not daughter)

Time to put the kettle on and do some detective work..

Thank you again
Alison
