Title: McClelland/ McClinton/Shaw in Monkstown
Post by: franvan on Friday 21 January 11 04:01 GMT (UK)

Looking for burial and other information on Andrew McClinton and his wife Elizabeth. Andrew died before 1901. His wife Elizabeth McClinton is listed as a widow on 1901 census.
She was living with her son-in-law Alexander McClelland and Daughter Sarah McClelland, formerly married to a George Shaw.
Elizabeth died in 1910- December 1- age 80.
Thinking they may be buried in Carnmoney cemetery.
I have burial information on Alexander McClelland who died December 1912 and is buried in Monkstown cemetery, as is Sarah McClelland's first husband- George Shaw who died in 1882.
Any info. would be helpful on this family. Thank you from Canada!

If you haven't found the children yet have a look in 1911 census for the 2 boys.

I have just found the contact info. for the council. Thank you for your suggestion!
On another matter, I see you are researching the Waugh surname.
I have Waugh ancestry as well!
Francis Waugh- b. abt 1810- Enniskillan, Fermanagh, died- 1905 Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Married Ann Kirk- b.1815 Ireland. Died 1869, Palmerston, Ontario, Canada.
They had 10 children. The first 4 were born in Ireland.
Joseph- 1838
Thomas- 1843
William- 1844
Sarah Ann- 1845
My ancestor is Margaret Waugh- child # 8 born 1856 Wallace, Perth Co. Ontario, Canada
Any matching info. on your lines?
Thank you for your help on the Carnmoney matter!

He married Isabella McCreight from Ballyhill in 1857 in Belfast. Let me know how you got on or if I can be of assistanc
