Wher can I find information on the street directory for Beryhill around 1912

Try Motherwell Heritage Centre, they should have directories for that time but don't know if Wishaw (which was a seperate burgh then) published one.
If you tell me the names you are interested in, I could check the 1922 directory. (Usually contains males old enough to vote and adult females if they were head of house).

Hi Lodger the name I am looking for is Patrick Slowey

I'm sure the name Sloey/Slowey has come up in this Forum before, perhaps the Administrator will make a search.

According to the 1922 directory, there is a family of  4 adult Sloeys at 75 Hill Street Wishaw -initials M. J. T. J.
Also a P Slowey at 39 King Street Wishaw.
No Slowey or Sloey at Berryhill.

In the 1925 directory the householder at 75 Hill Street is Mrs Mary Sloey. (the tenement building was called Hilton Terrace).
In the same directory - Patrick Sloway (note the AY) steelworker, 39 King Street.

I think it is RC member Pancho who has posted on the Lanarkshire board regarding the name Slowey. These are a couple of his posts www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,322651.0.html and www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,249421.0.html

Hi raybar and others
I am new to this site.  Just found your question on google, so I have joined to answer you.

Myggg grandparents were John Barry & Mary Forrest married 29/1/1796.
They had 8 children Margaret Barrie b. 29.12.1796 Blackhall Cambusnethan
next child unknown, Lillias b 11.5.1800 Mary b. May 1802 William 2.7.1804
Alexander 26.6.1806 Elisabeth 8.5.1808 and Marrion chr. 19.4.1812

My ancestor William Barrie, stonemason and his brother Alexander Barrie were bounty immigrants to Sydney Australia in 1832.  Alexander was found dead on a property in Annandale Sydney in 1840 and from his probate records William Barrie stated that his brother was unmarried and intestate leaving behind him surviving his mother and five sisters who all reside in England.  (I am guessing that he was referring to Scotland).

Further proof that William and Alexander were the sons of John Barry and Mary Forrest on William's death certificate in 1864 it was stated that Father not stated Mother....Forest. William named his daughters Mary, Lilias & Catherine.
