Stirlingshire / Where did my nan get her name "Silcock" and her sister "Flood"
« on: Tuesday 30 July 13 07:16 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone
My nan is from Falkirk and ancestors mostly from Stirlingshire. She and her mother have the middle name "Silcock" and my great-grandmother's sister has the middle name "Flood."
Annie Silcock Lonie (nee Nicol) born: 22 March 1889
parents: James Nicol born abt 1856, Agnes Davie born 25 March 1855
sister: Agnes Flood Nicol
daughter: Annie Silcock Lonie born: 20 August 1920
While I have found records of Floods and Silcocks in neighbouring areas, I haven't yet found any linkage as I know most people received middle names of relatives.
Would anyone be able to recommend how I might start searching for this information as I'm quite new to family research.
Or do you know of the Silcocks and Floods and how my grandmother might be related?!
Thank you
