« on: Sunday 15 March 20 15:15 GMT (UK) »David Hook born 1920 Dennistoun is in one tree on Ancestry.Yes I recall the name Feeney being mentioned in the past. Thanks
The tree has father as unknown, and mother as Jane McMillan Hook.
Jane subsequently marries William Simpson, who dies, and then James Feeney, with various children.
Added:
This would be her death:
Jane McMillan Feeney, also Hook, also Simpson, dies age 68 in 1966 in Glasgow 644/6 747
Added:
The tree is fairly detailed, owned by someone with surname Simpson, and appears active, so worth making contact?

« on: Wednesday 11 March 20 02:31 GMT (UK) »Welcome to RootschatForwards. My grandfather was David Hook who married Jane Sands. Both from East end of Glasgow.
Are you looking to go backwards or forwards from your grandfather? Would you like to share his name and when and whom he married?
If so we can then help you with finding more information.
