Cushingham anyone?
« on: Friday 21 September 07 18:30 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I have a marriage certificate of my grandparents, Alexander Campbell Reid and Annie Cushingham, m Dec 31, 1919.  Annie's parents are James Cushingham and Annie MacLean.  I cannot seem to find any records for Cushingham's in any of the places I generally look (familysearch.org) for the most part.  I am not even sure if the family is from Scotland or immigrated from Ireland.  Could someone help to point me in the right direction. 
Many Thanks

Hi June-Anne,

I wonder if this is your family in 1901:

Residence: 112 York Terrace, Glasgow
James Cushingham, m, head, 30, foundry labourer, Ireland, Austria ???
Annie ", f, wife, 30, -, Glasgow, Lanarkshire
James ", m, son, 10, scholar, Glasgow, Lanarkshire
David ", m, son, 5, scholar, Glasgow, Lanarkshire
Annie ", f, dau., 2, -, Glasgow, Lanarkshire

This census gives a birthyear of about 1899 for young Annie. ScotlandsPeople, the official website for Scottish records, has a certificate for ANNIE CUSHINGHAM, born 1899, in St. Rollox, Glasgow. The certificate will tell you where and when her parents married.
