Lanarkshire / John Thomson b 1868 Barnhill Poorhouse Springburn Glasgow
« on: Wednesday 16 June 21 16:48 BST (UK) »
Hi All, This is Soho confusing I hope you can bear with me.
I am trying to find out about a John Thomson born 2 Sept 1868 (illegitimate) in the Barnhill Poorhouse Springburn to a Bridget Thomson. the birth entry off Scotlands People states she was a
domestic Servant
Domesile: 580 Gallowgate Street Glasgow.
The Governor signed to say he was born in the poorhouse. OK that does not look to bad
NOW TO JOHN'S MARRIAGE
John Thomson married Charlotte Campbell on the 19 Aug 1891 the address for both was 75 Whitevale Street Glasgow.
FOR JOHN it states Father George Thomson Deceased Weaver. (remember his birth said illegitimate)
Mother Bridget Cairns (previously Thomson) MS Duff I cannot find any marriage
for a George Thomson to Bridget Duff /Duffy. I have found a marriage for a
Bridget DUFFY to
Marriage
16 Sept 1867 • St John's Catholic Chapel, Portugal Street, Hutchesontown, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland
Patrick Cairns
(1839–1917)
I have tried to find the census from 1851 -1891 for John, Bridget George to no avail.
I would also like the details of when she was admitted and discharged from the Poorhouse.
As I do not live in Scotland any help and advice would be much appreciated
