Derry (Londonderry) / Re: Catherine Laughlin baptized 1814
« on: Wednesday 17 September 14 12:24 BST (UK)  »
I know we have discussed this family before, but as I said - we only found out about Catherine today - even tho you mentioned her in a previous message.

My father is William Lochlin
My grandfather is William John Lochlin
My great grandfather is William Laughlin who married when he was 28,  to Jane Grieve aged 23 (on October 16th 1855) at St Patricks in Partick, Scotland.   His marriage cert states that he was born April 15th 1827 at County Derry, Ireland.  The marriage cert also shows his parents to be William Laughlin and Jane Stewart, and that his father was a gardener and journeyman.  The 1861 census shows:-
Note at the Census it was Laughland. 
Census of Scotland 1861 shows that
William Laughland lived at 8 Moncrieff St, Paisley aged 33 (Miners Labourer), born in Ireland,
Jane, aged 26 born Renfrewshire, Paisley,
Samuel, Son aged 10, (Scholar), born Lanarkshire, Glasgow,  don't worry about Samuel, he was from a previous marriage  (He, William, was shown on 1851 census with his first wife, mother of Samuel)
William John, Son aged 2, born Ayrshire, Auchinleck and 
George Laughland, Son aged 6 months) born Renfrewshire, Paisley.

Letter from Fiona Richardson, Heritage Services Assistant, Heritage & Information Library, Renf Libraries says
I have revisited your enquiry and while checking again for an entry for William’s wife Jane (Grieve) found an entry relating to William.  William’s residence is given as 2 Cotton Street, Paisley.  It gives his place of birth as Ireland and states that he was Protestant.  William’s wife Jane Grieve was 32 years old. His children are named as William John, (my grandfather) aged 10 and Jane aged 5.  William’s occupation is given as labourer and it also states that William was wholly disabled and wholly supported in Poorhouse, wholly supported meaning there was no contribution from his family.

His death 1868 Lachlan William   M   41 ABBEY BURGH   /RENFREW 559/01 0364

Getting back to William Laughlin and Jane Grieve, HIS father was also William Laughlin and his mother Jane Stewart (as I said) I have no other information about them, other than guessing them both to be born around 1800.

Now today I saw Catherine, born to William Laughlin & Jane of Ballykelly on 24 Jan 1814.  I was thinking that there must be yet another William Laughlin & Jane (?) who may have had Catherine.

I didnt mean you to think that the William & Jane were her parents, not at all.

My own great grandffather, William Laughlin was born in Drumachose on 15th April 1827 (to Jane Grieve)
HIS father was William Laughlin born Ireland about 1800 to Jane Stewart.

I don't know where in Ireland he was born as I dont have much information on him other than who he married, but as you will see, I DO have HIS son being born in Drumachose which I believe is only a few minutes from Ballykelly.     We  only found out Catherine was born in Ballykelly today and it just showed her parents as William & Jane presumably my ggggrandfather.

Can someone please enlarge on this information - parents William & Jane Laughlin

baptized in Ballykelly - (William may have been born Drumachose, but nothing definite)

I do have a William Laughlin b abt 1800  to Jane Stewart b abt 1800 but nothing to prove it

Bear in mind the spealling of Laughlin - I have seen it spelt all manner of ways Laughlan, Laughland, Lachlan.

Thanks Mike & Carol, I appreciate both very much.   It is still sharper than it was before, and that's all I asked.

Carol thank you - it's a lot better.   I wonder if you could include the writing below - I only just realised it had the name of the person.
