Find Ancestors

Thank you glasgowlass
I have info for Francis and jeanie and further back stopping at a marraige of Francis and Janet finlay 1803
I have no reason believe they not nanas parents
But want to also make sure nana isn't the child of a sibling , especially her being the youngest, we suspect Sarah is but i have no d.o.b
I'll know soon when dad goes to the Mitchell library, xx

Hi Georgette,
I can see exactly where this is going off.

There were 2 girls named Sarah Walsh Marshall born in Ayrshire
The 1st who MUST have been Frank and Sarah's daughter was born in Ayrshire 1917.
THIS woman married James Dobbins in 1934 and died in 1983
and no evidence that she remarried at any point.
Using SP search for the 1983 death, her mother's name was Walsh and the only other names are Marshall and Dobbins. There is no match with Burgess or variant

The 2nd Sarah Walsh Marshall MUST be a grandchild of Frank and Sarah.
She was born in Ayrshire in 1931

Which Sarah do you think was your gran's sister???

When I was very little I rembrr visiting aunty sadie ( who we guess real name Sarah) but her partner was uncle Bill, mum said she had married before , tho uncle bill may have just been her partner,
She was ill when we visited her and died soon after this would be in the 1980s, tho i was very young I have a vivid memory of her in a bed in the livingroom
So id say the 1st Sarah is nana sister

The second Sarah I am unsure I will check children of siblings names and see if I have any sarahs xx

It also matches info that she was married to.dobbins that i have xx

Glasgow lass
Would u like to view my tree and see the info i have put, I'm sure I have the williaim and euphemia too.... trying to think of top of my head as im. On my mobile and cant get to computer just yet xx

Copied and pasted from above
"But want to also make sure nana isn't the child of a sibling , especially her being the youngest, we suspect Sarah is but i have no d.o.b"


So you will now see Sarah could not have been the youngest as you suspected,.
This Sarah was about 15years older than your grandmother

Sorry its the way I've wrote it. I ment especailly with my nana being the youngest xx

We thought poss that sarah maybe lilliaths daghter
But with dates u give
1909 liliath and 1917 sarah
This isn't possible
Unless this other sarah is the child...
Or its another sibling .. pos my nana..
Maybe there is 2 sarahs brought up together,
Especailly that the oldest is known by sadie.. xx

I was at the GRO in Glasgow last week.
I looked only at Sarah's birth record.
She was the daughter of Frank Marshall and Sarah Walsh.
I admit that I was rather sceptical, but your info is correct Georgette.
