Ah that's good there's a match up. I had a quick look at the link again, the number 4s written on the page look different from in the age given for Mary. I think this could be a 7 and Mary's age is 75 which would be close.

Cheers

Hello Chris

I would like to ask if you have any Mooneys in your records from this church? In particular Hugh Mooney died 1939. He may share this grave with his wife Mary.

Thanks for your hardwork.

Hugh.

Hi Hugh,
This sounds vaguely familiar,
I think I briefly mentioned this in another thread reply without giving detail.
If this is the same Hugh and Mary I think they are buried in St Kentigern's

Maybe Chris has a note from there?

Thanks Monica,

and for checking all this out. I'd agree with what you have found and it looks like Bridget / Elizabeth stayed close to her family.

In 1921 the census ref is the same as daughter Catherine Grenary and family and in 1911 a few census numbers along from Catherine Granary and family.

Cheers
Duncan

She's in the deaths index as McIver not McIvor.

Aged 72 which implies she was born in 1852/1853, and her other surname is Holmes. Bridget Holmes married Denis McIver in 1876. So she doesn't look like your Bridget.

Another possible record in Paisley in 1925. Brigid Carr / Brigid McIvor. Age given as 80. Maybe worth a look at the SP record?

Hi All,

Hope you don't mind me joining in on this one. I might have another piece to add to the jigsaw and hopefully this won't confuse things.

As you mentioned RC records I thought there might be a possibility that there might be burial records for an RC cemetery.

There is a separate thread in the Lanarkshire page on St Kentigern's. Records which are searchable at https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/1321853 (hope the link works).

You can search the Daily Internment books roughly just after a date of death to find lair location and reference number and using the reference number you can then look at Grave Registers (lair books).

As you have Catherine's date of death in 1924, it looks to me as if she is buried in St Kentigern's. Looking at the lair books a Bridget (no surname recorded) was also buried there 30th March 1925. Going back to Daily Internments for 30th March 1925 there is a burial for a Bridget McIvor.

I haven't been able to match up an official death record to this burial though.

(It looks like Mary McIvor/Mooney was also buried in St Kentigern's.)

Hope this helps a bit.

I'm curious to know which John McAloon did she marry?  I am a descendant of the McAloons from Coatbridge and Old Monkland areas, but didn't know about this marriage.

Hi Karen,

Tieing in with your other post:
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=859579.msg7284833

SP has a death record for John McAloon in 1903, mother's maiden name MARTIN 652/2 227 so could be a link up for you all here.

Also worth checking out an SP marriage registration in 1870 RD Irvine 595/ 20
John MCALOON and Mary CAIRNIE

Good luck
Duncan

If you can find them in the Scottish 1861 census, it should, unlike the others, tell you at least a county of birth in Ireland. The other possibility is that if they had a child born in Scotland in 1855, that year (and only that year) gives the ages of the parents and their parish(es) of birth on the birth certificate.

If you know they had any brothers or sisters in Scotland, you could also try to find the same for them, which would give you an indication of where the family had been based in Ireland.

You might be in luck if brother Patrick matches this SP entry for 1855.
