McLeans of Glasgow

[MonicaL]

Once things are clearer, one death that might be worth thinking of is in Glasgow/High Church area:

Ann Jane McLean other name McCann, aged 43 died in 1870. Mother's maiden name Nugent.

As you know with SP, you don't know until you look which way round the surnames are for married women ie married surname v. maiden name.

Have you got James' death reg? Always good to check names and details from another cert.

All very helpful thank you. I think the second census record might be them, dates seem to match up, though the address is a little out of the way for what I know of them (they tend to be concentrated in the Garngadhill/Govan area). That death record is also a possibility, I can't make out her name properly so McCann is entirely plausible.
No death record for James, no. Spent the last of my credits looking but to no avail.

There are 2 births that match the 1891 census that Monica found which look interesting
Annie Cameron McLean b 1882 and Thomas Scott McLean b 1891 both registered Denniston

The marriage certificate, 1882....what names do you see for witnesses.

They might be family. Can you give details for bride. 

[OutlandMcLean]

Thanks Wendy, that Annie might be one of James and Marth Anne’s children, named after his mother.

Here is the rest of the marriage certificate. Witnesses are Jane Shields and Michael Kelly, so they don’t look to be related, hence why I wondered if the family might be back in Ireland.

What children do you have for James McLEAN and Mary Ann Cameron SCOTT, married 1882?

 * George b about 1898 

 * James Joseph [married Elizabeth McIlhorne, widow, 1920, Glasgow].

Oh wow, thank you so much. That would suggest that Patrick married again, and they had older children if they have a granddaughter with the surname in 1881. I only have George and James for definite so far, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if there were more. I'd assume an older son because of the granddaughter, Ann (unless she's illegitimate, from a daughter).
