Trying to find McDermott

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I'm trying to trace farther back than my Grandparents who lived in Cumberland Street, Gorbals, Glasgow. The difficulty is that my grandmother's maiden name was also McDermott (Elizabeth)although I believe there was a connection to the name Faulkner or similar. Although my father was born in 1888 I suspect that the family lived elsewhere in Glasgow prior to that and, presumably, when my grandparents were married at first. I'm assuming that my grandparents were/could have been, born in Ireland and then moved to Glasgow. Any help would be appreciated. Phil McDermott
