Family History Beginners Board / Re: Eliza Stewart and John McQuitty

It is confusing Heywood. I am sure Maria Logan is Maria Stewart and that she used her stepfather's name, John Logan on her marriage cert. All her kids have Maria Stewart on their birth certs. I have searched and search for Maria Logan and Alexander but they don't appear anywhere else. Alexander was from Muckamore in Antrim where his parents are buried and the family lived in Dough Grange Ballyclare so it his the right area. I found the graves for John and Margaret Gordon and Maria Stewart in Mickamore buried together.

Family History Beginners Board / Eliza Stewart and John McQuitty
« on: Thursday 20 July 23 16:01 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I have had some fantastic help from this forum in the past so I hope someone might be able to help me with my latest mystery.

Eliza Stewart married John McQuitty I believe in Belfast about 1845. I have seen a hint for this on Ancestry but can't  find the actual record on Groni, Irish Genealogy or Roots. Their first child was Eliza  born 1846 was born in Belfast and died 1902 in New Zealand. She married John Newell in Belfast in 1867. Eliza McQuitty's  sister, Agnes married James Gordon who is my granny's uncle. Jame's mother was Maria Stewart (my 2 x great granny). Could Eliza and Maria be related? Could James Gordon have married some sort of cousin? Maria married Alexander Gordon in Ballyeastion in 1848.

Eliza Stewart McQuitty died in 1881 and is buried in an unmarked grave in City Cemetery Belfast as is John McQuitty.

It is confusing as I think some of the kids lives in San F and the parents in Penns

You have the right family. I found a death record for Bridget Mary 1914 aged 64. John James O'Donnell was the informant (her son). I wonder if Bernard had died before then? It said she was born in Ireland and that her mother was Mary Boyle and her father James. The first child born 1871 in USA. Can't find any travel documents

Family History Beginners Board / Bernard O'Donnell and Bridget Mary Boyle
« on: Saturday 15 April 23 10:50 BST (UK)  »
I'm researching the family of Bernard O'Donnell (b. abt.  1840, possibly Glenties area Donegal) and Bridget Mary Boyle (b. abt. 1850 possibly Glenties area Donegal). I have a good tree for their descendants who were all born in Pennsylvania. I think Bernard and Bridget Mary married there abt 1870. Is it possible to find any records dating circa 1840/50 that might identify the sidings or parents of this couple? I have searched Roots Ireland and Irish Genealogy but it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Any help much appreciated.

Wiltshire / Re: All Cannings MASLIN and all related families

Hi,
I have Maslens from All canning and Devizes. John Maslen, born 1829 to Joseph Maslen and Mary Bell, was my 3n x great grandfather. He married Elizabeth Wheeler from Bromham, Wiltshire in 1850 and they had a son, John born 1849 out of wedlock. They later married and Elizabeth died in child birth with their second child, Elizabeth in 1851. John later married Maria Rose.  John was in the Royal Marines and living in Alverstoke, Gosport in 1887. So many Maslens! it would be great to collaborate  with other Maslen researchers.
