James and Matilda Kellett Morrison, Cavan
« Reply #9 on: Wednesday 30 June 21 19:37 BST (UK) »
Hello,
My first time on RootsChat. I am trying to help a dear friend connect with family in Ireland, hopefully when we visit this September. She comes from the line of John Francis Morrison, son of James and Matilda Kellett. He emigrated to America in 1909, with another brother, William George, who followed in 1911. I have been able to locate the grandchildren of another brother, James Robert, but have not contacted them directly, but through a church in Glenageary.
I see MEW53 may be related, and hope she will respond to this post, along with any others who are from this line, or from Margaret Morrison's, who married James Veighey in 1919. From family notes, I believe their children are William, George, and Ida.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. Rita

Hello Rita,

Welcome to RootsChat :)

You said that you see MEW53 maybe related so I am guessing that you have read one of her topics somewhere discussing her family connections - at the moment I am struggling to find the correct topic to connect your reply ??? When you reply to a topic it will send an email notification to the person to let them know of your reply but a "New topic" does not, I will keep trying..do you know who is the family member that may connect you ?

Regards

Sarah

Oh, you're all so kind! Thank you, Sarah, Kiltaglassen, and aghadowey!

From what I can gather Margaret Morrison and her husband James Veighey had William, George Robert, and Ida. It looks like MEW53 (Margaret) is George Robert's daughter? She has a picture of her parents posted with her profile.

My friend, Mary, is the granddaughter of one of Margaret Morrison Veighey's brothers, John Francis Morrison, who came to America in 1909.

I'm not sure if MEW53 (Margaret) lives in Ireland or England. I was in touch with another connection through Ancestry today, and she seems to believe the Veigheys all went to England.

On a different note, I came across a Matilda Maud Morrison (born around 1880 in Carrigallen, Leitrim), daughter of Edward and Jane Anne Dale Morrison. She married Samuel Kyle, and they had a daughter, Charlotte. It appears as though they lived in New York City, but traveled quite a bit. Perhaps she is somehow linked to this same family, being named Matilda?

One of my goals here is to try to find relatives that Mary could possibly meet when we travel in September to Ireland.

Thank you again for all of your help! What a nice community this is!

Stay safe and be well. Best wishes, Rita

Welcome Rita,
My grandparents on my Dad’s side were Margaret Morrison and James Veighey, Margaret’s mother was Matilda Kellett. They had 3 children: William, George and Ida, George was my father.
My father told me many years ago that he had 2 uncles that emigrated before he was born to the USA. I am  in contact with a second cousin who’s father was the son of James Robert.
I’m a bit rusty on some of the information these days, but will check my family history book.
Veighey, Isabella Montgomery, Wilson,  Haughtons ,  Arnolds, Morrisons & Kellets -Killeshandra, Co Cavan, Ireland, Whittaker- Conisbrough

Hi Rita,
You don't give a date for John Francis' birth but there's this one-
John Morrison born 26th March 1886.   MMN Kellett

Family not showing on 1901 census but probably not microfilmed- other families in Corlisbrattan have been.
