Doole / Dowall
« on: Tuesday 18 March 14 12:41 GMT (UK) »
I'm searching for any information for Margaret Doole born July 6 1881 Ford Street, Sorn Ayrshire, Scotland. Parent's are James Doole and Helen Potts.
Margaret is on the 1891 Scotland Census living at 73 Broomland Paisley Scotland with her parent's and siblings. I can't find her on the 1901 Census or a death registration for her.
Margaret might of went by Margaret Dowall, as i have found other cases where my Dolol's have changed their name to Dowall. There is a Margaret Dowell born July 1881 Scotland on the 1911 Canada Census at District: Kootenay, Sub district Slocan Riding, Place of Habitation: Nakusp, Province British Columbia,  County Canada, listed as being single Occupation Employee.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Debra

Hi Debra,
You can try looking at the variation 'DOEL' which name you can put in the search box at the top of the page ...... might help as that name is being searched by other rootschatters in various places.

Hi Debra

Gosh, you have a very well researched and documented tree on a/try  :)

Wondered if Margaret showed as follows for 1910 in the US:

Margaret Dule/Dale, servant, 29 b. Scotland living at Scranton Ward 12, Lackawanna, Pennsylvania.

Showing as having arrived in the US in 1900 and both parents Scottish.

From your notes on your tree info, a number of brothers and sisters spent some time/died in the US?

Monica  :)

Thank you Monica. I have come this far, because of all the help received  from others kind enough to help me in my searches and sharing their information. When i started my tree i had very little to work with, as no one is left to ask questions.
The Margaret Dule/Dale living in the U.S. in 1910 could be my relative, only my Margaret parent's were both born in Ireland. Makes it difficult when names are changed.
Many thanks for taking the time to help me.
