Lookup John SWEENIE, DNB, 1861/1871
« on: Friday 08 December 06 17:47 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for my ggg grandmother Isabella SWEENIE (b.c.1821, Ireland).  We know she married (2) to a John SWEENIE (b.c.1827, Irl) in Bonhill, DNB in 1851.  Her children from her first marriage (Charles BROWN) may have all left, but there might be a Catherine Brown (b. 1843, IRL) in the household on the 1861 census.

Which count(ies) are most likely for this?.
Can you supply the 1851 transcript?

I am fairly certain John Sweenie (Sweeney) will be in Dunbartonshire.

1851 census: Burn Street, Bonhill
Isabella Brown...head...age 30...stocking maker...born IRL
Elizabeth...dau...age 13...born IRL
Mary...dau...age 11...born IRL
Catherine...dau...age 8...born IRL
John Sweenie...lodger...age 24...ag labourer...born IRL
Daniel Gallacher...lodger...age 28...mason's labourer...born IRL
Ann Gallacher...lodger...age 25...stocking maker...born IRL

Our information is that Isabella and John married later in 1851 in Bonhill, DNB
