Lanarkshire / James Mack Smith
« on: Friday 31 January 20 01:47 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace what became of two of my Gt Grandmothers brothers. James Mack or Meck Smith born 29/2/1888 and John born 1885. They were born in Glasgow but moved to the Isle of Man c1896. I know my Gt Grandmother moved back and lived in Govan sometime between 1904 and 1914, before going back to IOM.
Her brothers may have also returned to Scotland?
They may have joined the Navy but I know nothing of them after the 1901 Census in Ramsey IOM where they lived with their Mother Lilias Smith b1858 in Muckairn.
Their Father was Thomas Smith, born 1860 Old Monklands, Engine Fitter. I believe they lived in Toll Cross just before going to IOM in 1896 and my Gt Grandmother married in Govan.
Did they die in WW1?
Can anyone help please?
