Thank you for your reply.

I note the records on https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk  for the children of EDWARD COLLIGAN/ANN CLELAND at CAMBUSNETHAN.

MARGARET5/04/1829
THOMAS 25/07/1830
BARBARA 20/01/1833
ROBERT 30/03/1834
AGNAS  & ANN 22/11/1835

It looks likely that some of the children are with Agnes Cleland (Sister of Ann Cleland) in 1851,

I cannot find a marriage or 1851 census for Edward & Ann, at this stage.

Thank you, I have a death for Ann in 1863, listed as being married to Edward Colligan and it deosnt say deceased so I assume he is still living when she died. I cannot find marriage for them or death for Edward. I also cant find a birth for Edward, I believe he was born in Lanarkshire Scotland but there is a possibility he was born in Ireland

I note your message but I have posted this anyway.

The 1841 census on freecen notes for the children  “Surname not enumerated; presumed COLLIGAN”. It also records Eduard was a boiler maker, all noted as born Lanarkshire.

No baptism record for John and no trace of other members of the family, sadly no death/burial records at Cambusnethan 1750 – 1855.

No clear birth records for Edward or Ann and no marriage.

Thank you for tyring, i really appreciate it

[ColC]

I guess this is Ann’s death you mention.

ANN COLLIGAN   DIED    AGE 63   MMN - YOUNG      1863   WHITBURN

Maybe her baptism?

CLELLAND   ANN   THOMAS CLELLAND/MARY YOUNG    19/11/1798   BOTHWELL

Have you found Ann on 1851/61 census?

I think the mothers name for Ann was an error maybe?

CLELAND   JOHN   THOMAS CLELAND/MARGARET YOUNG    03/01/1801   BOTHWELL
CLELLAND   ANN            THOMAS CLELLAND/MARY YOUNG            19/11/1798   BOTHWELL
