Where and when did James die?

[kathleenmitchell]

Hello all,
 James died in 1899 in Greenock, both his parents Samuel and Jane we were deceased at the time of his marriage in 1855.  John Mitchell as mentioned on a previous message died in 1857, his parents were Thomas Mitchell and Ann Hart, so not a brother or Father to my James Mitchell

Thanks
Kathy

That is a good find, Sancti 

Her other surname on the death index is Flannigan.

I think this is her with family in 1861:

James Flannigan 60 Agricultural Labourer  b. Ireland
Elizabeth Flannigan 32 wife b. Ireland    
Jane Flannigan 5
Elizabeth Flannigan 3 www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FQ9V-Z9R
John Flannigan 14 months www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FQXR-NRL
Ann Logan 62 Boarder
Elizabeth Gallocher 50 Visitor

Address: 61 Vennel, Greenock West   

In 1881, Elizabeth is likely a widow:

Elizth Flannigan 50 Sewer & Knitter b. Co Fermauagh, Ireland
Elizth Flannigan 23 Daughter
...and 3 lodgers

Address: 42 Darlymple St, Greenock West

Hi

Thank you all so much, my 2x gt Grandfather now has a sibling, I am so happy.

I cannot find a marriage for Elizabeth and James, (although he was quite a bit older than her). Nor can I find a birth for their first born Jane, I have the births for the other children.

I wonder if they even got married?  I know James had a previous wife and family.

Thanks
Kathy

have the births for the other children.

Parents marriage place/date should be on the birth entries, if they were married that is.

Hi

There is no marriage date on either John or Elizabeth Jnr’s birth certs, the 1856 Greenock birth is not Jane’s, I have tried lots 1855-1857 Glasgow with various spellings oh Flannigan but cannot find it, I was very surprised that the parents marriage wasn’t on the births, but neither does it say illegitimate 🙈🙈🙈
