Wigtownshire / Margaret Kyle Richardson of Stranraer
« on: Saturday 11 October 08 03:00 BST (UK)  »
Trying to find information on my great-grandmother, Margaret Kyle Richardson. She was born in Stranraer on March 06, 1879. I don't know the names of her parents, but was told that Kyle was a family name. Not sure if this means that it was a surname that was given to her as a middle name, or if it was just a name the family liked to pass on.

She left Scotland for Canada around 1912, were she married Henry McAllister (he was from Lanarkshire) on October 18, 1912 in Collingwood East, British Columbia, Canada. They had three children: Margaret, Henry and Andrew. They later moved to the United States, settling in Seattle, Washington.

This is all the information that I have, not much to go on I know. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Trying to find information on my great-grandfather, Henry McAllister.  Date of birth was August 31, 1885. Names of parents and siblings are unknown. He moved to Canada in the early 1900's and married Margaret Kyle Richardson (she was from Stranraer, Wigtownshire) Collingwood East, British Columbia, Canada. They had three children (Margaret, Henry and Andrew) in Canada, then moved to the United States and settled in Washington State.

I know it's not much, but it's all the information I have at this time. Any help in fiding out more about him would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
