Dear Friend, Malcolm McLean from Glasgow b c1846 came to Liverpool and then to Bootle, married and had a family. Just recently I was reminded by an elderly relative [even older than me] that Malcolm had a Sister who went by the names of Katie McLean. Katie McLean married a .................Clancy in Bootle/Liverpool toward the later part of the 19th Cent. they had two children John Clancy and Susan Clancy. I have tried the Lancashire BMD without matching a McLean and Clancy. I would appreciate kind assistance with this one. Joe In San Antonio

Dear helpers, I have not yet determined where in Glasgow Malcolm was born. The main thing that I am tying to do is find a matchup in marriage McLean and Clancy most likely in Lancashire.

There are two Susan Clancy's born in Lancashire maybe order a birth cert to see who the parents are Name: Susan Clancy Year of Registration: 1885 Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun DISTRICT: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 444 (click to see others on page) Name: Susan Clancy Year of Registration: 1905 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar DISTRICT: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 361 (click to see others on page)

Joe, There's nothing I can see and nothing on the census records. I looked for Katie/Catherine/Katherine. You need to order Malcolm's marriage cert to Bridget Conway. This will confirm who his father was. Rose
