hi ,
trying to find my greatgrandfather Owen Toner he married in Bathgate in 1885 to Catherine Bell but i cant find him before that.He was born in Ireland ?in 1860.
I have tried to find him in Ireland but i don't know where he was born his parents were Peter Toner and Catherine Mcgill.I have traced him after 1885 to his death in 1928.I would be really grateful for any help.On his marriage certificate his surname was spelled Tonner and the 1891 census also but it is spelled with only one n.

hello
im hoping for some advice in tracing my grandmother Elizabeth Purvis b1889 in New York . My greatgrand parents David Purvis and Elizabeth O'Hara Purvis emigrated from Scotland after 1885 as their son Robert was born in Scotland that year.All my mother can remember is that her mother was born in Longisland New York.We dont know what year they came home to Scotland. If anyone has any idea's it would be much appreciated.
Thanks Tina.
