My grandmother's brother, James Welsh b1885 married Annie Semple Harrison b1886 in Glasgow in 1908. James died in Harrow, Middlesex in 1973 and Annie in Brent, Greater London in 1976. It is unclear when they moved south, and if they had any offspring. Up to mid 1915 it is not believed they had any children. In 1932, James was living in Glasgow as he was the informant of his brother's death.

Any help appreciated!

David

Hello David,
I'm afraid I don't know whether they had children either, however it appears we are distant relatives! Annie Semple Harrison is my 3x great aunt - her sister, Isabella Boyd Harrison is my 2x great grandmother!  :) Would love to hear more about the Welsh side!

Kind regards,
Lauren

Hi Lauren,

Many thanks for responding and explaining your connection. I’ve since established that James Welsh and Annie Semple Harrison had a daughter, Isabella Boyd Welsh, in 1911. She went on to marry a Joseph Boon Cantley and they had four children. I’ll private message you with my email address. Let me know If you would like me to send you the little I have on your Harrison/Boyd side and my Welsh side.

Thanks again for making contact.

All the best,

David
