Walter Casson & Catherine McGlinchy

[KMcKenzie]

Hi,

I'm researching a Tree for a friend and have come across some Irish in his line. His Great Great Grandfather was Walter Casson Son of Abraham, and was born in Lancashire. His Spouse was Catherine McGlinchy born between 1875 & 1884 in Londonderry. Walter appears on the England census' for 1881 & 1891 but then disappears. Walter & Catherine had a Daughter Anne Casson born 13 October 1910 in Londonderry amongst other children. Would anyone be able to help my find the family of Catherine McGlinchy please?

Thankyou!

When and where were Walter and Catherine married? The marriage certificate should list her father's name and occupation.

Catherine possibly stayed with relatives in Londonderry (city or county?) when Anne was born in 1910- the place of birth may help locate Catherine's family.

Civil registration of births started in 1964 so there should be a birth certificate for Catherine but will be difficult to know if you've found the correct record without a location, father's name, etc.

hello!

Well it now seems that Anne was born in England. Im not too sure when they married, but they had their first son Walter in 1901 and i have looked for him and his siblings birth's on the FreeBMD site but none have shown. So the children must have been born in Londonderry, unfortunately i don't know which part. But Walter & Catherine must have married in Londonderry between say 1894 & 1902.

Sorry i can't be more precise, but that all the info i have been given :/

Though going back to saying that Anne was born in England, i can't find that either! :/

"Daughter Anne Casson born 13 October 1910 in Londonderry amongst other children."

Are you sure about the date? there's a birth registration for an Annie Casson Oct./Dec.1909 Londonderry registration district volume 2 page 187.

What are the names and ages of the other children?

[KMcKenzie]

Hi both,

I have had a look for the death record for Annie Bosworth nee Casson and it was 31 October 1909. My friend had this date mixed up. So she was born in Londonderry City then?

Well the children that are in the Tree are - Walter 1901, Edward 1903, Anne 1909, Elizabeth 1913 & John 1916.

I don't imagine that an age or father's name was given with the marriage extract you found kingskerswell? I was told she was known as Cassie.

Hi,
    Sorry, I only have access to the bare bones which I have given you. With children born well before the marriage I suspect that what I have found may be a second marriage.

My McGlinchy ancestors came from Donegal/Tyronne and settled in Blantyre Lanark in the 1860's so I cant offer any help.
