McCrory and Kean families In Johnstone
« on: Saturday 16 May 20 18:09 BST (UK) »
Hi, trying to develop my family tree and looking for some assistance. My GF John was born at 31 Graham St, Johnstone on the 1st July 1891 to James McCrory and Margaret nee Kean. I suspect John had a Twin brother named Patrick. John’s father is described as a journeyman Enginefitter. There is some evidence that James and Margaret married in Kilbirnie on 4th Feb 1876.

Hi , welcome to RC  :)

It does seem that John and Patrick were twins -

Sadly , looking at the deaths index on Scotlandspeople , it looks like Patrick did not survive his first year  :(

John's birth certificate should contain details of his parents marriage.
