Armagh / Armagh Tierney
« on: Thursday 17 March 16 16:27 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
Glasgow Poor records give my Great-grandfather x 2 birthplace as County Armagh. How do I find out where in Armagh?
He died in Glasgow in 1885 aged 46 which puts his birthyear abt. 1839. Various census records suggest his birthyear as anywhere between 1938-43. His parents Patrick Tierney and Elizabeth Ramsay were married in Glasgow in 1846. Census show his 3 siblings were all born in Glasgow, Thomas born abt. 1838, Alice 1851 & Patrick 1854.
I found a death cert. for the mother, Elizabeth Ramsay for 29th Dec 1870 in Glasgow, aged 75 but can't find death cert for the father, Patrick. Census records state both parents were born in Ireland.
Any advice?
Paul

Hi,
I've used up my credits going round in circles.  According to Glasgow Poor Records, my GG- Grandmother Elizabeth Brown was born in North Street, Belfast about 1846 before moving to Scotland. Her parents were William Brown and Margaret Brown (Cummings). Her siblings are listed as Sarah, William and James.
Why can't I find her birth details? Any advice appreciated.

A relative died in Hartwood Asylum in February 1927.  Is it likely he was buried in the graveyard on the grounds and if so, where are these burial records now held?

old parish records show my ggg grandparents got married by dr william lindsay, a relief church minister in glasgow in 1846. names are Patrick Tierney & Elizabeth Ramsay. apart from the groom's occupation as a 'smith' there is no other information.  how do I find out more?
dr Lindsay was a minister in a church in cathedral street glasgow which was abandoned in 1878 due to subsidence, the congregation moved to kelvingrove united presbyterian church until 1963 then to anderston area. Any ideas what I should do next?

Lanarkshire / Trongate Glasgow 1860's
« on: Thursday 17 October 13 20:43 BST (UK)  »
According to the marriage certificate, at the time of their marriage in 1865 my great great grandparents were near neighbours, one lived in 43 Trongate and the other 49 Trongate. I went along to have a look and the street numbering doesn't make any sense. Looking at the tenement building between Saltmarket and the Tron Theatre, the closes are numbered 15, 25 and 39 then tron theatre is no, 63 ??

Lanarkshire / Montieth Row, Calton, Glasgow
« on: Friday 11 October 13 09:06 BST (UK)  »
My great, great grandparents were married at 32 Montieth Row, Calton, Glasgow in 1865 by a minister of the Free Church of Scotland.
I notice other forum users mention their relatives were married at 30 Montieth Row and 33 Montieth Row around the same era. Sadly, the row of buildings is now demolished.
Does anyone know the background? Was this part of the street used for weddings where the couple did not want, or could not afford a church wedding? Perhaps if they were not parishioners they got married here?  Could any religion get married here? Can anyone help? Thanks.
