William McClelland of Waterford
« on: Wednesday 11 June 14 20:20 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out more information about my great-grandfather, William McClelland. I know he married a Margaret Connolly in 1875 at Clonmel, Tipperary. He moved with Margaret and their first child, Hugh, to England around 1878/9. He settled in Manchester where he died in 1919 following a fall. Information from the English censuses indicate he was born around 1850-53/4 and the 1911 census says he was born in Waterford. His father was Hugh McClelland who was a carpenter. I am trying to find any evidence of birth record and any siblings/relations in the Waterford/Tipperary area. Any help information much appreciated.
