Channel Islands Lookup Requests / Samuel Fraser
« on: Friday 18 October 19 03:40 BST (UK)  »
I'm trying to view the death and burial records for my g grandfather, Samuel Fraser, died 27 April 1928 at the British Hotel, Gouray, Jersey. He is listed as Samuel Frazer on the Islandwiki page. The record number, presumably for his burial, is 14177, page 199 under Croad's burials. Sadly, I can't afford to pay for an annual subscription to access one or two records at the Jersey Heritage page (I am quite certain I won't need to access anything else).
If anyone can assist me, I'd be eternally grateful; it has taken me 20 years to find this Liverpudlian with a stage name/alias.

Kirkcudbrightshire / Shennan Shannon, Gledrie, Landsborough
« on: Saturday 10 December 11 19:14 GMT (UK)  »
William Gledrie m Janet Shennon
Children (some if not all) b Rerrick:
John 1752
David 1754 m Helen Sloan
William 1761
Janet 1763 m John McCartney
Andrew 1767 m Unk, desc's to ENG
Mary 1771 m Samuel McLandsburgh/Landsborough

John Gledries 1827 Castle Douglas Testament and 2 codicils mentions David, Andrew, Janet (and her natural son Robert McNaught as well as her two McCartney daughters), one son and three daughters of Mary Gledrie Landsborough, Alexander Shannon, Helen Shannon alias Mitchell, Mary Shannon alias Hyslop and a John Landsborough "in Liverpool, now deceased".
I have figured out most of the people mentioned in the will except for Alex, Helen, and Mary Shannon, and John Landsborough.

Now...

a William Shennon m Janet McBrair/Briar
Children b Rerrick:
Robert 1754
John 1759
Mary* m James Hyslop
Janet 1768
Helen 1771 m Alexander Mitchell
  dau Isabel b ca 1801 m Alexander Shennon

* - Mary Shennon alias Hyslop is presumed to be a child of Wm Shennon and Janet McBrair, although I haven't found any evidence yet. There are certainly large enough gaps in the siblings above to allow for a few more children.
Further, I believe William Shennon m J McBrair is brother of Janet Shennon Gledrie.

Any info appreciated.

Any info on Lawrence and his McGinns greatly appreciated. Edward and Thomas seem to be popular names amongst the descendants.

Cheers
