Siblings of Mary Farrell

[Flipside]

Hi

I would appreciate a wee bit of help locating the siblings of Mary Farrell, Mary was born 24 Feb 1891 at 43 English Place/Square Coatbridge.  Mary's parents were James Farrell and Ann Kane i think they married 27 Jul 1890 in Coatbridge.

Mary married Edward McMahon 13 Nov 1912 Craigneuk Dalziel.  Mary Died 13 May 1936 at 16 Portwell, Hamilton, Lanarkshire, Scotland.

I am dont know anything about her parents or siblings 


Kind Regards

Hi Flip

A good way to try to expand on the family is look at the censuses.

This looks to be Mary with family in 1891:

James Farral 36  Iron Worker b. Ireland
Ann Farral 30 b. Ireland
Stephen Farral 8 b. Old Monkland, Lanark
Mary Farral 1Month b. Old Monkland, Lanark

Address: 67 Dundyvan Rd, Coatbridge

Looks like a second marriage for either James or Ann?

Have you got a copy of the marriage certificate? If not, go to www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk and invest in some credits. use some of them to download an image of the certificate.

This will tell you, among other things, where Mary was residing at the time of her marrage, and whether or not either of her parents was deceased.

Armed with this, find the listing of Mary in the 1911 census and use a few more credits to download a copy of it. With luck, this will list her siblings, and if both parents were still living it will tell you how many children they had had together and how many were still living.

No birth reg for a Stephen Kane or Farrell.   If Ann was previously married to a Kane then Stephen may have been born before that marriage and registered under her maiden name

You need to check the 1901 and 1911 censuses for other siblings born after 1891

1901 and maybe something has happened with mother Ann or just not with family?

William Foster 38 Cotton Mill Card-room Hand b. Canada
Nellie Foster 44 b. Edinburgh
Stephen Farrell 20 boarder Cotton Mill Card Room Hand b. Wishaw
James Farrell 42 visitor Iron Work Labourer b. Ireland
Marie Farrell 10 visitor b. Coatbridge

There is the death in 1901 in Lanark for an Ann Kane/Farrell, aged 39. Might be worth you checking to confirm if this is Mary's mother?

Guessing you have the 1890 marriage reg you mentioned which will also help you to reconfirm her parents' names?

I wonder if Stephen could have been the Archibald Steven Farrel born in Dalziel district in 1881.Then again, possibly not, as I've just noticed that you said James and Ann married in 1890.

There is also an entry in the 1901 census for an Annie C Farrell, aged 38 and born Ireland. She shows as a patient at Lockhart Hospital in Lanark.
