Hi o coigligh
do you have any idea when he came to Greenock
I done a general search on SP 1881 census and 1891
there are only two on the 1881 and 1 on the 1891
but the ages dont match up
also done a death search and again 4 William Quigley's
but not in the age range unless his age was not recorded
there is this site
not many Quigley's on it though

thanks for your reply elaine447.i dont know when william went to greenock,im not even sure if the age is totally accurate this is just a guess based on the birth dates of two siblings.
elaine are there any other names on the census as these may be same as other names in my family...thanks

[o coigligh]

is there a website or a contact for people buried in greenock cemetery?
or does anyone have a trade directory for greenock for around 1890-1920 which may list william quigley as a bar owner
thanks mark

What was your GGG Grandas name? just that I descend from Quigleys that moved to Greenock around 1855.
My 4x G Granda,  Dennis & his brother John (moved to Glasgow then Greenock), could they be related to your own search? All I Know of them were they they were born in Donegal, Ireland, think the place was Eschine.
