Kilkenny / Commonbog, Co. Kilkenny
« on: Thursday 21 January 16 16:01 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

Does anyone know where exactly Commonbog, Gowran parish, Co. Kilkenny is? Where is the nearest town? An ancestor, Martin Kavanagh, was born there in 1822 to John Kavanagh and Mary Rourk - any info on this couple?

Thanks, J

Kilkenny / Cousins family of Reevanagh
« on: Sunday 27 December 15 19:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

Looking for information on Catherine Cousins family. She married a Michael Malone of Reevanagh townland, Co Kilkenny in 1836. The marriage record spells her surname Cozens and a witness as John Cozens (her father or brother?). In 1841 she had a son Patrick in Reevanagh and her surname is spelled Cussins on his birth record. In the Griffith valuation of 1850 there is a Walter Cousins listed in Reevanagh. Also a Walter Cousins died in Co Kilkenny in 1874 aged 76.

Any info on this Cousins family?

Thanks, J

Lanarkshire / John Hamilton + Margaret Dalziel

Hi,

Does anyone have info on John Hamilton and his wife Margaret Dalziel? They lived in Overtown in the late 18th century - a daughter Isabel was born 1766. They may be buried in Cambusnethan grave yard - is there a headstone in the old grave yard or a family lair?

Thanks, J

« on: Sunday 18 May 14 13:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm trying to get birth details for Alexander Fleming (parents John Fleming and Graham White married 14/11/1803 at Canongate). FamilySearch site has a birth for Alexander Fliman at Inverkeithing, Fife, 16/06/1821 but I cannot find a record of this on ScotlandsPeople site.

Also looking for info on his parents birth/death etc. John Fleming died 1855 at Inverkeithing.

Thanks, J

I believe he was born in 1874 at Alnwick, Northumberland. he married Catherine Ness Beveridge from Scotland at Carlisle and was in Cramington, Northumberland in 1911 Census. I also don't know where/when Catherine died.

Can anyone help?

Orkney / Osla Ballentyne (Ballenden) - South Walls
« on: Friday 25 October 13 20:49 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
I'm trying to find details of Osla Ballentyne (Ballenden) who was married to Henry Sutherland (born 1754) and lived in South Walls. The only details I have are that she died in 1838 aged 86 - I can't find a marriage or birth record. The name Osla is a mystery. Is this an Orkney forename? I have found an Ursilla Ballenden born 1757 in Orphir - is Osla a corruption of Ursilla?

Thanks, J
