Hi,

im trying to find information regarding Margaret Gilliland / William Frazer who lived in Monaghan in the 1850s & 1860's. I dont know where they were originally from but can they had 5/6 kids born in Monaghan.

Can anyone get me info such as where they lived / got married or even where they were from.

Hi I am Susan from Glasgow Scotland. My G Grandfather Robert John Gilliland b1874 married Maggie Conly, came to Glasgow 1898. Robert's Father was George Earnest Gilliland and married Jane Turbitt. Do these names mean anything to you? I don't know much about the Gillilands and have made an appeal also on this web site for help...

davieboy-
IGI lists 5 children to William Frazer and Margaret Gilliland, including 2 sets of twins. Any of the children's birth certificates will show exact place of birth (townland).
Finding the marriage for William and Margaret depends on their religion. Civil registration of Protestant marriages began 1845 but Catholic marriages from 1864. Otherwise you would need to search for church records after you know their religion and exactly where they lived.
