Thanks again for your trouble.

Yes, it is good that she lived close by, but why in an alms house...poor woman.
I have just sent for those two death certs...Sophia and Janet Olive.
Back to the drawing board now.

I'll second that! I can't believe that we have made such a breakthrough all in one go.
I don't know you would transfer your enquiry over to Renfrew Rootschat list though. Perhaps the moderater will help you when he/she reads your posting.
All we need now is the details for Hugh senior in Argentina.

If you Google ship meander, there's an old picture of it for sale on ebay and also amazon. It MAY be the same ship.

Thanks olduser1. I was wondering if you had his marrage details etc. I'd be very interested to hear how you get on with the Liverpool Maritime Museum. I did email them a few years ago but didn't get much help. I hope things have changed. It's good to know where he died though.
Thanks again.

As Radcliff states Hugh Duncan's  father is shown as a Baker on the 1863 m cert, still waiting for the 1871 m cert to arrive.
The 1863 m is to Ellen Curwen not Curwin as in my earlier post.

The only record on the English Census with a Hugh Duncan entry is on the 1871 when living at 49 Park Hill Road Toxteth Park, shows where Born as Liverpool.

Thanks for the replies so far.

Let me know if I can provide any other information.

Sorry to but in on this topic, but I have been wondering for ages what happened to Hugh Duncan. I knew about the Nancy Brysson but couldn't get any further than that. I am so pleased to hear that someone else has now found him. I have the death cert of his first wife Ellen Curwen but will have to do some serious searching for it. I do remember though, that she died just after having her second child and Hugh remarried very quickly after that.

Wow, thank you all very much for all this info. I will need a while to read and digest it all.
Bye for now!
Ann.
