McInrue/McAhruie Coatbridge

[sancti]

I have looked at a few records on SP that look like the above names. They have been transcribed onto the SP index as above.

The 1st record was a marriage in 1884 for a Mary Ann McAhruie
The 2nd record is her brothers marriage John McInrue in 1885
The 3rd record is their fathers death John McInrue in 1907

I know they came from Ireland but dont know when or from where and I cant find any reference to the name on the census

Hi there

Looks like this might be your man in 1901 as the occupation, address and wife seem to correspond with the DC info.....

Thanks Jean, I have now located it on SP and that is the elusive John

[sancti]

I'm trying to find them on the 1871 census. There should be John 2nd wife Mary Ann daur Mary Ann and son John

Its a bit of a nightmare as the spellings I have came across are

McAhruie
McInrue
McAroon
McAroo

Hmmmm....well I haven't got time right at the moment to chase this one out but....is there any slim chance this might be John and wife Mary?  Note that only one of those girls is indexed as STEPdaughter....I haven't tried to find this lot on SP yet....

SP have this family that JustJean found in 1871 indexed with the same spelling:

1871   MCALUR   JOHN   M   30   BOTHWELL   /LANARK   625/01 008/01 015   

...and that was searching the surname as m*c*a*r*    From the 16 entries showing in Lanarkshire, the only 'odd' surname showing on the list of McArthurs/McKellars etc. is this one:

1871   MCCARRACHER   JOHN   M   28   HIGH CHURCH   GLASGOW/LANARK   644/02 047/02 006

...which I couldn't figure out what the original would be.

The search was for a household with a John, and second name Mary*

Are you expecting them to be in Scotland by 1871?

Regards.

Monica, at first I had no idea when the family arrived from Scotland and who it consisted of. I have now managed to find a marriage record for John Mc Aroon widower who married Mary Ann Carlin widow m.s. Letimour (sp) in 1868 in Coatbridge.

I know he had at least 2 children Mary Ann and John from his 1st marriage in Ireland to Elizabeth (Bessy) Teven

They appear to have spent all their days in Coatbridge Old Monkland but the different spellings of the surname is confusing. The only 1 that I have them (1901) was found by Jean under the name McAroo.

The daughter Mary Ann married in 1884 and I have that marriage.

The son John married in 1885 and died in 1895 and I have both those records. I dont know if there were any other children from 1st or 2nd marriage or where they originated in Ireland

Isn't this so weird....I was trying to chase down the family in Bothwell by viewing a BC for wee James and in doing so definitely proved they were not the same family....but also in doing so found that the Coatbridge family had a wee James in 1869!!!
