Northumberland / Gateshead - Saltwell Cemetery
« on: Wednesday 11 January 12 19:00 GMT (UK)  »
Is anyone able to visit the cemetery for me and get a photograph of the grave of some of my relatives please?

They are:
Joseph Daglish and Florence Daglish
Saltwell Cemetery Section B - Grave No 1118.

And also Section B Grave 1643 - there is no gravestone on this plot but it belongs to my Gt x 2 Grandparents Mary Ann and William Small and I am just curious to see what the plots looks like or whats around it.  I suspect overgrown grass.

Is there anyone out there who may be able to help me out please?

West Lothian (Linlithgowshire) / Parents of David McIntyre - Linlithgow 1881??
« on: Thursday 23 June 11 21:07 BST (UK)  »
Could somebody please take alook and see if they can get the names of the parents of David McIntyre born 1881 Linlithgow.

As that is a VERY common name I will try to give a little more detail.

I believe his father to be Peter McIntyre (b. 1851) and his mother's first name to be Margaret (b. circa1853) surname unknown.

David had siblings including:
Isabella 1875
Thomas 1877
Helen 1879

Many Thanks

The Common Room / The Same Person??
« on: Tuesday 21 September 10 19:55 BST (UK)  »
On one of the branches of my tree there are two people who at first appear to be sisters:

Lottie Brown 08 Oct 1923
Angela C Brown 08 Oct 1923

At first glance they are twin sisters born to mother maiden name Masterson, and indeed the family say that they believe there were twins in that section of the family.   Everyone remembers Lottie (though not necessarily as a twin).  No-one remembers Angela

BROWN    Angela C    Masterson    Preston     8e   816a
   
Brown    Lottie    Masterson    Preston     8e   816
   
Would they be more likely to be the same person registered twice? As Angela appears to be added as an "afterthought".   Is anybody able to have a look and let me know their opinion?

US Lookup Requests / MASTERSON - San Fran Earthquake 1906
« on: Tuesday 07 September 10 23:09 BST (UK)  »
Please could somebody help?
I'm trying to find details of a Denis (Dennis) Masterson, b. circa 1879 of Kinsale, Ireland who travelled to San Francisco from Australia in 1904.
Family opinion is that he perished in the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake.

Is there any way to discover if this is true?

Ireland / THOMAS FLANAGAN - WHO, WHERE, WHY?
« on: Friday 14 August 09 17:01 BST (UK)  »
HI - I'm tracing my father's line (The Flanagans) and have hit an obstacle.

Going back from now until the mid 1800's they have all lived in Northumberland, England - however I have finally found the generation that brought our Flanagans to England that lies with my Great x 4 GF Thomas Flanagan. 
I have no idea where abouts in Ireland he is from or what year he moved over to England.  I also have no DOB for him or his wife and no parents so far.

HOW do I find these things out?  I'm dying to know more about our Irish roots etc.

All I know about him was that he and his wife Dorothy Flanagan (ne้ Flanagan again) had a son called James in 25 June 1841 in Morpeth, England.  Thomas was a pedlar on James' birth certificate. Can anyone help me or give me kick start?

Other Countries / India - Margaret Ashford
« on: Saturday 14 February 09 19:42 GMT (UK)  »
Can anybody tell me anything about MARGARET ASHFORD born in Tamil Nadu, India in approx 1801?

I know she ended up in Scotland and in 1822 she married John Oliver in Linlithgow and died in 1861 in Linlithgow, but I know nothing of her before that, nor anything of her parents.

Is anyone able to help me find her ma & pa, and the reason she was born in India please?
