New thread started by James re Mary's husband Hugh.

Copying everything on it over here to keep everything in one place:


James Report 16 Oct 2017 17:07

Any info on Hugh Rankin and wife Isabella. Farming in Ireland. Parents of Hugh Rankin b. 1829


ArgyllGran Report Edit Delete 16 Oct 2017 17:20

Any more information, James?

Where did you find Hugh 1829? What else do you know about him? Wife? Children?

Please post the census or birth record or whatever you found him on.

ArgyllGran
I made a reply to above thread but mis read it, hence my initial silly response

It seems that son Hugh and wife Mary L Barnet married in Magherafelt, Derry in 1853 and moved to Old Kilpatrick, Dunbartonshire.

I am guessing that James obtained both death certs ( Hugh d 1872 and Mary d 1903) which provided names of parents





ArgyllGran Report Edit Delete 18 Oct 2017 11:24

Thanks, GL.

But now I'm confused. And not sure which thread to continue on!

James says that Hugh 1829's father was also named Hugh.

But the record of the marriage to Mary L Barnet says his father was George.

Is this the death you mean for Hugh junior, GL?

See 1871 census above, posted by Maddie

The youngest child on this return is called Jane age 5
She is not on any further census returns but suspect she is the 13yr old child named Betty Jane Rankin who died in 1879

This name leads to an 1866 birth in Magherafelt

Father's name is Hugh and Mother Mary's maiden name is transcribed as Barnard!

Maddie,
It does appear to be the correct family unless it's a big coincidence

1901: 49, Glasgow Rd, New Kilpatrick
Mrs Rankine 59 B Ireland
Rebecca Rankine 29 b Ireland
Thos Blakley 29 Boarder
Chas Miller 21 Boarder.

Death in same area of Dunbartonshire and age is slightly out
( same index No usually relates to same death)

BARNETT

Death cert should name parents but is only as good as the informant's knowledge

OOPS...
Apologies James. I misread your opening post
I thought you were looking for names of Mary Barnett's parents.

No idea if this death is the correct one
