Devlin family name
« on: Wednesday 06 April 22 02:45 BST (UK) »
Hi all,
Wonder if anyone can help. My great grandmother is Annie Christie and I have birth, marriage and death cert all with her father as james Christie and mother Elizabeth devlin, but I can’t find any information on either of them. Can anyone point me the another direction I may not have tried. Annie was born in Scotland but it says her parents were married in Ireland, but finding nothing. Thanks for any help

Hi
Possible sibling
Clemence Christie died 1899 Shetleston age 30 so born 1869 ,Mother's maiden name Devlin.
As you say no sign of a marriage.

There is a possiblilty that Elizabeth Christie who died at Burntisland 1922 is the mother but there is no maiden name.I'm sure you know about the James and Elizabeth Christire there who seem to be James Christie and Elizabeth Jack but do have a daughter Annie around the right age.It might help to look at her death and see if it has any more info.

Annie's Scottish birth certificate should list place as well as date of parents' marriage so could you please let us know full details as well as family's religion?
With the above details it might be possible to find the marriage in Ireland.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!
