5 1911 MCLEOD KATIE MARY F LOCHS /ROSS AND CROMARTY 087/00 0083

I really need that visit to Gros!! She's gotten under my skin. I bet it's recorded under Catherine but no point in wasting credits when I can check them all at Gros.
By the way, I have Angus 13 Vatisker on the 1915 valuation rolls. I do have a Kenneth but he's at 35 Keith Street and I'd like to check further births/deaths and marriages to see if the family were there at any time to make sure he's the right Kenneth.
:-S

Happy to help, Evelyn! Robert Ian just might be the name, I haven't seen either name on any Lewis things we've looked at but we've only scratched the surface of M*cLeods!!

My cousin's husband is a MacLeod from Lewis. His parents were both MacLeods so you can just imagine how hard it would be to do his tree!!
They went over three years ago to see an elderly relative who still lives on the croft and between them all they managed to work out who was who.

Baggage Cynf???>>>>>>>>>>>>>>BANG AND SLAP.


Woody you are doing brill on the attempt to locate the Catherine Mary child...As is Vicci.
Well done on finding that 1911 census.

I have wondered many times though if "Diane"did the party trick of taking a few years off her age though...She fibbed about most things it seems and said nowt about anything meaningful so maybe..?

I will not interupt your trains of thought though as I HATE that done to me...

Brill work every one and thank you all so much for stalwart help in a long and on going "whoisshe"..

:-D

Can't help but think I have missed something, though, FBG :-S so would welcome any interruption to my train of thought!!

The information given by your Stornoway contact looks good but I can't find any of them in India Street. :-| In fact, I can't even find India Street on a census!!! I'll check them out at Gros as I can check all the pages and also the headings to see what streets were recorded.
The houses there are fairly new so I'm wondering if that's where the family live now, or did in recent years.

I need to go over the thread again. In fact, I think you emailed a synopsis at one point so will check it out.

I found a Diane MacLeod born in Caithness, wrong age and couldn't connect her to the Stornoway ones, though the name Leslie was in that particular family.
When I find a birth I like to "kill" the person off but she didn't die in Scotland.
She "bothered" me for quite a while as I couldn't rule her out, apart from the location as Caithness is on the extreme North East of Scotland whereas Lewis is extreme North West!

Okay! I've found the email but no eureka moment so decided to go back to the start!
Just musing - Robert might have been a piper and could therefore be a pipe major without being an army major.

Why did we discount this Robert, can you remember?? It's on page 2.
He's still (or perhaps, is back) in Fort George in 1891 census.

Will take a closer look later today. He who must be obeyed is clapping his hands with impatience because I´m not paying attention.

This is why I don't volunteer to do census searches.......you're all so good at it and I'm rubbish. Mind you, I'm a dab hand at abstract - out of the box googling :-D

I'm just happy to keep you all happy :-D


Not sure about keeping that Fans happy though...........she can't 'alf slap hard. Miserable old bat that she is. :P


Goes off rubbing ear :-( ;-)


Continuing thanks for your efforts. <3 <3

6 1909 MACLEOD CATHERINE MARY F STORNOWAY /ROSS AND CROMARTY 088/00 0263
b. sept 26 1909

this is her

born 6 New Street

parents marriage date 16 Oct 1902 - which matches Kenneth & Catherine

Oh for goodness sake!!! How did I miss that?? :-| I have that one as well - that's what I get for burning the midnight oil. :-|
I did keep thinking I was missing something, and I sure was right in that! Very well done, Vicci, egg on face here!

Just as a matter of interest, was Emily Goddard Fenwick Evelyn´s sister?(G_F that is,not "our"Evelyn).
1911 has her living 9 Old Pembroke Place Kensington, aged 34, magageress of a Dog shop.
With her is a visitor Hilda Patterson 43 a hospital nurse.
Have clutched at so many straws I have a haystack. :-D

Will info 1952
Emily Goddard Fenwick of 44 Dafforne Road Upper Tooting London spinster died 12 June 1952 probate 9th July to Patricia Eileen Murial Goddard Fenwick (wife of George Digby Crofton Goddard Fenwick) effects £550 13s 5d

Thanks Jan.
I presume Christophine Fanny Georgina (who was a nurse) was another sister to whom their mother Christophine Sarah Caroline Goddard Fenwick, widow of George Stephen Goddard left her estate of 957/8/6d when she died 30.11.1905 at 160 Rosendale Road, Dulwich.
Do you think the George Dunlop Leslie/Lydia Fenwick marriage I found this morning is yet another coincidence?

perhaps posted before 1901
