Tyrone / Re: Joseph Anderson b. 1823 & Ancestors
« on: Friday 01 September 17 00:07 BST (UK)  »
Hi thanks so much for your reply!
I can't see the addresses or family members or ages when I try and look them up on ontario censuses.

I don't know where in Ireland Thomas and Betsey were from or Betsey maiden name or their children's names. Don't know their death dates in ontario.

I've tried looking through all the cemetery lists in Hamilton and can't find them.

Don't know where Joseph and John were born in Ireland but I'm sure your correct on that their brothers o thank you for that.

I cannot see the addresses they were living at in those censuses either. That's why I'm stuck.  :(

I've searched all over familysearch and other sites. The only possibilities for Ireland that I found were:

Margaret Nixon
Christened: June June, 1824
In Seaforde, Down, Ireland
Father: James Nixon
No mother listed.

And:

James Nixon
Christened: March 15, 1796
In Downpatrick, Down, Ireland
Father: John Nixon
Mother: Anne

And a possibility:
On a West Flamborough, Wentworth, Ontario, Canada census there's a James Nixon that is 75 yes old in 1871 he's listed as 75 yrs old living with an Eliza Nixon who is also 75 yrs old and born in Ireland in 1796.

Wentworth was the town my ancestors were living in on ontario so that part is correct for sure.

Does this help to search for information in Ireland?

I have no idea how to go forward to verify.

Orkney / Re: Hugh Marwicks parents and further!
« on: Friday 25 August 17 18:48 BST (UK)  »
Hi I've tried that a bit couldn't find a birth for Magnus or George Magnus for those dates. I literally wrote down all the birth with those names that would make possible sense for Hugh to have been born. Haven't gotten anywhere. I've connected to literally hundreds of cousins and distant cousins down the tree line of the 10 sons.

Robert C. Marwick who is a distant cousin did a website called Rousay Roots and he's got as far as i have and unfortunately he's passed away. I feel a duty and a calling to continue where he left off.

I'm stuck 😔 I know somebody has the answer out there.

Unfortunately I dont.  :(

Margaret Nixon's father I know his name was James Nixon born in Ireland in 1795, not sure what county and not sure of her mother's name.

From what I have Joseph was born
Nov. 1, 1823 ?, In Ireland.
Margaret was born about 1830 or before.

They had 9 children:

Josiah b.1849, Thomas b.1850, James b.1853, Mary Ann b.1859, Sarah b. 1861, Margaret Matilda b.1863, William Francis b.1865, John b.1869 and Isabella Rowena b.1871.

Joseph's father Thomas was born around 1782 in County Tyrone, Ireland. His death might be July 6, 1869. All I have is a name Betsey for his wife born around 1794, Ireland. However not sure if her information is correct.

And the only child I have from them so far is my great x3 grandfather Joseph however I'm sure there was more.

I've searched and searched, however maybe I'm not doing it right or I don't have access to the records.

Thank you so much for your response.

Amy!

Europe / William & Carlena Kinscher - Berlin, Germany
« on: Friday 25 August 17 02:54 BST (UK)  »
Hi everyone,

I am desperately searching for information on my great x3 grandfather and grandmother.

William Kinscher
B. Germany (maybe Berlin?)
D. Unknown probably Germany
m. Carlena (maybe Caroline)
B. 1843 Germany

They had 2 children that i know of:
Minna Kinscher
B. 13 Aug 1876 Berlin, Germany
D. U.S.A or Canada

Martha Kinscher
B. 1880 Berlin, Germany
D. U.S.A? (New York?)

I found information that says Carlena and her 2 daughters immigrated to New York, USA in 1888 from Germany. For some reason William didn't come with them.

In 1899 Minna married John John. Raymond in Auburn, Cayuga, NY.

In 1910 Martha married John Detrio on Dec. 3 in Onondaga County, NY.

On the marriage licences Carlena is listed as Caroline Smith.. but in the arrival to USA censuses she's listed as Carlena Kinscher..

Wondering is she remarried to a SURNAME of Smith and called herself caroline?

They all disappear after the marriages of the daughters.. I've tried to look everywhere.. wondering what happened to this family and would like to find info on William and Carlena and where they came from and their ancestors.

Thanks so much!
