Sorry he was David McClelland.

So, you may have this, but for others who may read this thread on the internet, the years 1882-1895 were searched and this was the only birth record for an Ellen Jane with father David.

Ellen Jane McClelland born 23 July 1886 at George's Street, Derry. Father David McClelland, a postman. Mother Sarah Heaney.

Yes this is the information I have now but there is alittle confusion as David wife was a Mary Ann nee Heaney with a sister Sarah!

I did some more research and Sarah was only 14 at the time of my grandmother’s birth!
I wonder if she was the mother and her sister and brother in law looked after the baby or there was a mix up when the baby was registered!

....or there was a mix up when the baby was registered!

The informant was an A Lumsden (of Orchard Row) who might have confused the first name of the mother - Sarah rather than Mary Ann. Agnes Lumsden was a nurse (ladies).

Thankyou so much for your help.
I can’t find a connection to anyone from Scotland but I have 23% Scottish DNA on my mother’s side.
But Agnes Lumsden was born in Scotland!
I only know my mother said her middle name was from her mother’s aunt Jean who lived in Scotland!
Only 4% Irish DNA!
Thankyou again.
Happy New Year from Perth Australia.
