I am trying to trackdown any information on Patrick STRAIN, Owen SANAGHAN & Patrick McKENNA families who moved from the north of Ireland to Scotland about 1860s.

Hi wildgoose,

Do you have any approximate ages or locations for your people?

If you can post as much detail on each of them as possible, it'll give us all a better idea of where to start looking for them.

Many thanks for the offer of help.  I've just noticed that Pats 2nd marriage cert was signed by a Felix McKENNA.
With regard to Pat Jnr's death details I'm not 100%.  It was the only certificate which recorded his 2nd wife's name (Mary BRYSON) on it BUT his son John's death cert. dated 1898 recorded Pat as being dead!!
Hope that doesn't confuse.
