Pat(t)erson/Mulligan/Gunn/Cullen (Lanark, Scot) Emigrated to Canada aft. 1901

[Rosinish]

Trying to locate any descendants of:

Robert Pat(t)erson b 1878 Wishaw, Lanarkshire d c1961 son of John & Mary Mulligan, who married
Sarah Gunn b 1882 Wishaw, Lanarkshire d c1971 dau of Thomas Gunn & Rose Ann Cullen

Robert & Sarah married 1901 Lanarkshire. They were in Pennsylvania prior to Scarborough, York, Ontario.

They had 6 children, 3 of each sex who may all have been born abroad?

I have only 3 names but no dates:

John b Helvetia, Brady, Clearfield, Pennsylvania d c1994
Thomas
Robert d 1918
Mary d c1992

Nothing for remaining 2 F & 1 M

There's a possible death on fam/search 19/05/1914 York, Ont for a M - no name?


Last address I have seen was:

16 Rock Elm (Rockelm) Rd, Scarborough, York, Ontario from at least 1958 - 1965

Any advance on the above would be great.

Regards,

Anne Marie.

UPDATE - Found the 1914 death to be Thomas aged 0 (Possible stillbirth)?

So only the 2 girls on my WANTED list now :-)

Hi Sage,

Thanks for that, it sure looks good but will need to dig some more.
I need to find out who Agnes is/was  & not sure about James either O.o

Did it mention where both Mary & James were born as that would be relevant?

Going by the names I have to date & naming pattern James is a  till I check his siblings names as I can't remember and as they are not my line, I don't have them on my FTM as it is Sarah who is my relative:

John............Robert's father's name
Mary............Robert's mother's name
Thomas........Sarah's father's name
Robert..........Robert's namesake

I found a conection with an ancestry tree yesterday too so maybe a few ??'s will be answered.

Im off to check census.

Regards,

Anne Marie.

The item I found is just a card that must have been filled out prior to travel.  This particular card is terrible to read but the children's birth place is not given.  I'm sure it is Toronto where the family were residing at the time though I can't make out the street name.  It also asks, 'Were you ever in the U.S.' and the answer was yes btwn Oct 1910 & 1912...I think!  It's jolly hard to read but I think that part is correct.
Don't know when the U.S. census was taken...says April 1910 so Robt and Sarah might not be on either the U.S. census or the Canada census taken in 1911...that makes it tricky!
