I’ve just seen that about all the Irish records ........  I think I’ve done all the Scottish records as been at it for weeks and this is my second time going back to it ...... I think I’ll sit one day and try n piece it all together ( where the kids were born / married etc ) and see if I can at least work out where exact in Ireland and then just take it from there I suppose ....
Thanks for your time anyway ✌️

That’s cool and interesting ....... how can I go about finding the rest of the family then ??? It’s Catherine’s mum n dad I need to find Hugh and Mary , can’t find anything in ancestry or my heritage , is there a good Irish one I could join as seems to be the only way I’m gonna get any further ...... can find a few Hugh lamonts but nothing to link them all together to say for definite that’s them

Sorry I don’t get what point you are trying to make ..... I can’t get the link as am on me phone n wasn’t sure how to do it or what name to put in ..... ( I’ll try ltr on the comp ) As can’t see it on my phone anyway  and was only making an observation if Catherine Ann gave her son  the middle name Mitchell It was prob after her mums side of the family ( Mitchell ) which is cool as it confirms again her mum was Mary Mitchell .....
I am trying lol , I’ve took my grandads side right back to 1500 but I just can’t get past Hugh on me grans side ...... thanks for your time anyway am away  take the dog a walk ...... ✌️

I can’t see that link interesting birth registration .....
And do you think the Mitchell in her sons name was after her mums side then who was Mary Mitchell ...... it’s her dad Hugh Lamont I’m after though 🤷‍♂️

Yeah I’ve had a quick look at Catherine , that’s how I know she’s well documented , she got married Croaghmore Presbyterian church, lived in Portstewart in 1901, states she was born co Derry on there so Hugh ( who I’m trying to find )
must have lived in that area at some point , or at least his wife Mary Mitchell ...... I’ll keep plodding on  n hopefully something will come up as really wanna get past Hugh  n take it a bit further

Thanks for the replies folks ,
The way I got it , I got them all in Glasgow in the 1861 census , can’t however find anything before that on any of them ...... found Catherine Anne’s marriage or death certificate as she’s well documented and says Hugh Lamont and Mary Mitchell on there so know I’m on the right track .... just can’t find anything linking them all together in Ireland  .....  I know it’s them as can trace back ( Hugh is / was my great great great grandad ) I come from his son  Francis line ...... I’ve tried looking through his wife Mary Mitchell , and all the kids , Francis , Jane and Catherine Ann .......

Hi there am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction .... doing our family tree and I’m stuck with a Hugh Lamont born in Ireland about 1820ish ..... he married a Mary Mitchell and had 3 kids , Catherine Ann Lamont who went onto  marry a James or John Dunbar , a Jane Lamont and also a Francis Lamont who was born about 1845 ....... for some reason I can’t find anything out about them before 1850/60 ish when they all turn up in a census in Glasgow ..... it’s Hugh Lamont or Mary Mitchell I’m after to try n take things further ...... many thanks n all that Paul
( something tells me they were from the north , Ballintoy , ballymena etc area as Catherine married there and think she was born co Derry )

If his dad was sir Henry he was one of the founder members of the India trading company ..... Braunton in Devon was a big port in those times , they took ships from there to go fight the Spanish Armada ..... that’s the only reason I can see them being in Devon but like you said there no had evidence so unlike everyone else I’m not just adding it ...... I gotta run as late for work ...... if anybody can peace it together then fair play to them 👍
