I have some census data on Priscilla, but not on my PC here. Ive got other details from local registers from Hartlepool too somewhere. My grandma seemed to be in awe of her, so it wouldnt surprise me if she fudged her age on purpose. She also thought she had married the Maughan.
I would love information on the Gaffney side if you have it.
Tonia I wonder if your father knew my grandmother quite well, she was Joan Alderson, b 1927, or even if you knew her?

Hi Annette

Yes very elusive. I did find a christening for her, or think it is for her, from Freereg. A long long time ago when the records online were of the pages in the bmd registers, I did find her birth in the records, in 1850 in Hartlepool, and Im sure I printed it out, but I seem to have lost this. (I can see still the page, it was the middle column half way down the page, its so annoying that I cant find it). All the online records now have no trace of this. And yes, she lost years through the years! Now I have contact with Tonia, Im hoping to get it all in order!
CHRISTENING: County Durham
Place Trimdon
Church name St Mary Magdalen
Register type Bishop's Transcripts
Register entry number 673
Baptism date 07 Aug 1850
Person forename Priscilla
Person sex F
Person abode Gateshead
Father forename Thomas
Father surname LEE
Father occupation Basket Maker
Mother forename Louisa

Hello

Yes, I am still looking for Priscilla. She is my 3rd Great grandmother, and I have been looking for more information for a long time but everything I have found is so disjointed I cant make head nor tale of it.

Nairnshire / Re: BAIN and JAMIESON

Hi I wondered if you would be able to help me with some information that may be relative to your Jamiesons. I noticed on a post the address for the 1901 census. My great great grandfather lived next door at 13 King Street in 1937 and I wondered if any of your family would have any recollection of them. They were Hector McKay and his wife Elsie Ann. They had 2 girls as far as I am aware, Ann and Margaret, Ann probably still lived at home, but Margaret had married by then. I dont think they lived in King Street in 1901 though but they did in 1919 when Anns first daughter was born.

Hi Monica

No its his birthplace and the end location, Stannergate is his last know address.

Maybe Janet is down as widow Gibson?

Just done a blanket search on FreeCen for any female aged 70 - 90 under piece 282, theres a widow Gibson but aged 70. Tried all the Mrs s too!

A bit stuck now, but I think much for Annette Ellen to go on.

Also, Dundee City Council Burials Dept may be able to give further info now there are some dates, but Im not sure if they have the records of the Howff, but they do other cemeteries in Dundee and they may be able to help. I think their email is burials@dundeecity.gov.uk
There is still some headstones in the Howff (Old part), the New section was demolished to make way for a multi story car park.

Just had a look for the Howff File of Dundee Burials in the Howff Cemeteries provided by Dundee City Archives.

You can contact them I would imagine for more info:

1245 Kettel [Gibson ] John  Gardener
 see Janet Gibson (no date for this which is unusual)

1244 Kettel Stewart 26Jun 1836 10 mth Dundee
 Water in Head dau ofJames Kettel, Gardener

1461 Gibson (Kettel) Janet 28 Jan 1843 81 Dundee
 Old Age Widow of John Kettel, Gardener

Janet must be on the 1841 census somewhere.

You can find the Dundee Archives at http://www.fdca.org.uk/index.htm
The Howff file is under Databases.

Happy hunting
