John CHRISTIE, Ireland to Scotland- completed

[aghadowey]

That's fantastic (think John's birthplace as Maybole is why I could never find him). Will sit down with this information and see where I can go from here.

It looks as though the 1892 marriage for John Christie and Isabella Henderson that Monica found is the right couple. John's parents listed as deceased- his father James Christie died 1889 and mother Susan died 1877.
John's occupation seems to be gardener, rather than carpenter, and names of children match- Janet/Jessie (after Isabella's mother), Susan Gilmour/Cissie? (after John's mother), James (after John's father) and Andrew H (Henderson?) (after Isabella's father). It will be interesting to see 1911 census when it's available.

Parents for Isabella as we had from IGI, with father an Iron Moulder journeyman. Likely Henderson family were witnesses, a John and Annie Henderson.

Hello Monica, I'm currently doing genealogical research for a scottish friend and I'm interested in this particular line, John Christie and Isabella Henderson. I'm specifically looking for more information on Isabella's parents, could you point to where you found the information on IGI? Or where I could find a transcript?
Thank you in advance!

Welcome to Rootschat. I was the one who started the thread looking for details of John Christie (my husband's realtive) and would still be interested in any information on his family.

To find details from IGI (International Geneealogical Index) go to www.familysearch.org, select 'parents', fill in just their names and have a look at search results.

Thanks for your quick reply! IGI seems to be down for the moment so that's why I was asking Monica if she had a transcript of scanned copy of the image stored.

It was working a little while ago and I just tried a few searches again and seems okay- perhaps a slight glitch for you earlier.

Hello again,

IGI was down yesterday but I managed to perform the search and found the info.
By the way, I'm starting a new thread on Janet (Jessie) Christie, daughter of your John Christie and Isabella Henderson, I'll link to this message.
Have a good day and thanks again
Marylene
