William McNab was born in Stranraer Wigtownshire in c1826. (according to 1851 census)
Cant' find him in 1841.
In 1851 he was married to Ann McDonald living in Middle Greenock.
In 1861 he was living in Rickergate Carlisle with 3 children.
In 1871 I can't find him, she is living in Glasgow with just one son, living under her maiden name, her son was William McNab plasterer. No idea where the, by then, 4 girls were, the youngest 2 were born in northern England.
1881 Ann McNab widow was living in Govan Glasgow with 4 girls.
In 1891 she was living in Dundee.
So pinning their locations down is tricky.

Death certificate says Journeyman Plasterer, married to (blank), Married, aged 50 the informant/Witness I have attached. I haven't followed through on this person. But I think it says his employer who lived in Glasgow.

Thank you for replying and clarifying about the coroner. Now I understand about the Procurator Fiscal.
But now I am confused about the location. So the Sands of Uig or Uig sands are not near Uig town on Skye? What are the other two places mentioned on the RCE? Sands of Uig near.... 
I am hoping to visit in September while in the UK and am interested where he died and may be buried even if there isn't any evidence still existing. Most of my rellies were too poor for gravestones.
thanks for your help

Has anyone any ideas about where my GGfather may have been buried? He died in the bay at Uig in 1877, presumed drowned according to the coroner. He was a long way from any relatives as far as I can tell and not much information was known about him.
Also does anyone know if there were burial registers for Uig for 1877 still around?

Hi Julia,

I have only just caught up on all your postings. My brother was trawling the internet and sent me the link to this posting. I never thought I would find anyone related to the McKinnes, the name changes make it such hard work!

My great grandfather was born Henry Edward McKinnes in 1874 in Dundee. He died as Edward Paterson I think, in Glasgow. Long story there..

Some of the information you have found in the last month I have,  some of it especially the census's with wierd spelling I had not!

One thing I think I have you don't is the marrige cert for Isabella Patterson and Arthur McCames in Cavan Ireland.
I got it by email from the family history place.

Parish Church of Ireland Laragh 1st June 1866
Arthur McCames servant of Bailieborough Full Age
father James McCames farmer.
 married
Isabella Patterson Brough Larah Parish 19
father George Patterson Tradesman

I would love to trade information with you. As I am new to this newsgroup not sure how to proceed from here.

I live in Melbourne Australia.
