I think Rosewell is in Midlothian but not sure

There is a 1901 entry - aged 9mths born Lasswade but before I post details - what else do you know about him (eg) parents names

No entry in East Lothian or with an East Lothian birthplace

Have you checked the Scottish 1911 for him or Scotlands People for a birth

Scotlands People has no births in East Lothian 1898-1902 and the only one in Midlothian is the one mentioned in my reply above

Pretty sure his father was Henry Mulligan. Rosewell is in Midlothian, extend field 1898-1902? There was a sister Catherine born 1902. Thx for helping me, Kathy

Hi,
    Rosewell is approximately 11 miles south of Edinburgh and at one time was a mining village.

This is the 1901 entry I mentioned but you will need to look up the 1911 to see if a daughter b 1902 shows with this same family

21 Carnethie St Lasswade

Hugh Mulligan   33 b Ireland Electric Engine Keeper
Lizzie     23 b Govan Lanarkshire
John    9 Months b Lasswade
Patrick McGarn   59 b Ireland father in law

Hi Kathy

What is the source for the info you have on this John Mulligan? Can't easily see a 1973 death in Florida for him on the Social Security Death Index.

As Carole suggests, just checking on the general searches for the Scottish 1911 doesn't make for an easy match with a Catherine and John Mulligan with the ages you have. Not conclusive though just from general searches.

What do you have on this John to confirm a Scottish birth and his migration to the US around 1925? Have you managed to find him on the US 1930 and 1940 censuses?

So, from the info on this old post below:

Could one of you nice guys look up Molly for me?  She is being as slippery as a slippery slidey eel.

Details:

Molly (Mary) Ryan, born 1901 Scotland.
Moved to US in 1925 (got that)
Married in 1933 to John Mulligan Brooklyn, NY got that

Parents James Ryan and Mary Bonar, living in Scotland 1901.

Now death - I believe she died in Florida about 1965-70 and I found one entry but with no further info on it for Pasco, FL for 1967.

Any further info would be great, whether she had children or in fact anything.

Thx guys appreciate it a lot.  Been researching Molly for weeks and it is going really slow.

Kathy :)



Is this John and Mary in 1940 in the US? https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KQRY-SZB

This might also be him in 1930 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KQRY-SZB  Occupation electrical helper then mechanic would fit well. If right entry for him, this shows a possible immigration year of 1929 instead of 1925 (Mary Ryan arrived in the US in 1925 from what was mentioned in the other post?).

Shipping manifest for the 'Caledonia' showing arrival for John into NY on 22 Aug 1929. Birth year 1900, birth place Rosewell.

Have you managed to get the 1933 NY marriage entry to check on any of his personal details (like a father's name)?
