West Lothian (Linlithgowshire) / Re: Tragic accident involving two sisters
« on: Wednesday 17 March 21 11:46 GMT (UK) »
A very generous lady contacted me by p.m. and has used her own credits on ScotslandPeople to buy the two death certificates with the P.F. details......................again I am astounded by the kindness I have encountered in the quest for information on the deaths of Margaret and Catherine Welsh. Thank you doesn't seem enough, but it is said with sincererity.

Morning all, I thought I had posted a reply last evening, but evidently not, as I can't see it on here.
My heartfelt thanks to all who have shown interest and posted information so quickly, this I did not expect so soon.
I phoned Anne last evening and she was overjoyed to have all the information on her father's two sisters - her aunts - she only had sketchy information before. By now her three brothers all living in the Glasgow area, and her sister in Canada, will have this information.
Anne visits back home several times a year and always pays her respects at the graves she is aware of, now she has another grave to visit.
When she has digested this new information she may well have more questions which will need answers, so I may need your help once again.
I have a Family Tree Maker, to which I am adding Anne's family; any information on her ancestry will be welcome. She is now considering doing a DNA test - I did this several years ago and wowee am I so glad I did; I had a paper trail but now I can back this up with my DNA connections.
Once again, thank you all for your kindness, and the p.m.'s with information and offers of help.
G. south of the border!!

West Lothian (Linlithgowshire) / Tragic accident involving two sisters
« on: Monday 15 March 21 16:52 GMT (UK) »
I am helping my sister-in-law with her Scottish and Irish ancestry; she remembers family stories about how two of her father's sisters were killed in a tragic accident on their way home from school.
In 1911 the family were living Armadale, Lanarkshire; Patrick and Mary Welsh and five young children.
We don't have a date or first names for the births and deaths of these two sisters unfortunately. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction for a newspaper report of the accident, and any other information please.
My researching has been south of the border, Wales, England, Isle of Man, so I have no idea where to start in Scotland.

HI folks,
My friend Thelma, now using her middle name of Elizabeth, and I are in email contact; I have been able to send her photo's from our school days, including the trip to Paris in 1956 - she no longer had her copies.
The power of the internet and good folk who gave their time and knowledge, have enabled me to find her.
Thanks, once again, all the posters who helped me; much appreciated. XX

Brilliant sleuthing, thank you RJ137, Sandra and oldohiohome. The pieces are now coming together. I do have an Anc. sub but not for USA.

From obit I now know Laurie's aunt Dorothy married a Sutherland; have now found marriage 1964 in Liverpool - so have something to work on over here in U.K.
From Laurie's marriage certificate I now have the address she and Corrine were living, so poss Corrine still living there?? ooops no, they moved to Whidbey Island.
Is it possible to find where in 2019 Lauri died??
I am so indebted to all of you for giving your time and expertise to help.
