DON'T look for McGlashing. Look for the more usual spellings - McGlashen or McGlashan. Many surnames have changed their spellings as there was originally no correct version, and clerks wrote the name as it sounded.
Happy hunting!

Good Morning Heather: I believe we have found Lloyd and it was in BC.

Lloyd McGloshing - it was spelled with an "o" instead of an "a". Vancouver,BC - death 1-29-1959 at the age of 73 which would make it correct with his birth year.

Now part 2 of the search begins, I will try and obtain his obit and see if he was married with children and also try and get his death cert.

Just wanted to update you as you've been such a great help to me all along - Thank You.

Have a great day!!!

Sandi

That was funny to see - it's me Heather!! Thanks for the William info. A few years back we found his family in Texas but did not have some of the info you sent along. They were kind enough to send a photo of William - his wife (2nd wife) and the extended family.

Now if we could only find that damn Lloyd that would be all my grandfathers siblings accounted for. Maybe it's going to take another 8 years or maybe I'll never find his final resting place???

Good Morning: Thank you "so much" for the information on William Hugh MacGlashing - that was Lloyd's brother. How did you know there was a family connection as there was many McGlashing's through out the USA??

Now if we could only find Lloyd - he is the only one of my grandfather's siblings that we can not find "death" info on - have been searching for 8 years with no luck.

Thanks again for all your help I appreciate it.

Have a great day!!

Re: Lloyd A. McGlashing - Where did he go???

sandimcintyre51 — 2008-06-13 03:29:32Z

Hello: Thanks so much for your reply to my post I appreciate it.

I have posted in the Glace Bay (for that county) message board also. Where Lloyd seemed to move around quite a bit I felt it may be a good idea to post on this site.

Regarding hiring a researcher - that would be nice if I had the money to do so, not an option at this point!!

Re: Lloyd A. McGlashing - Where did he go???

O_Lorelei — 2008-06-12 19:48:30Z

You might get an answer if you post this
to query on the east coast site, I think Glace Bay is in
Nova Scotia,Canada.
You might hire a researcher to see if he left a will.

Lloyd A. McGlashing - Where did he go???

sandimcintyre51 — 2008-06-09 00:03:59Z

Hello: I'am trying to locate information on my grandfathers brother - Lloyd A.McGlashing born in Amherst/Tidnish on August 2,1886. Parent's were John Ritchie McGlashing & Elizabeth (MacKinnon)McGlashing.

Last trace of Lloyd was per his fathers obit dated 1934 - at that time Lloyd was living in Glace Bay. We have not been able to locate him after that.

Would like to know if he ever married - had children and where he passed away.

Thanks to all for any information.

Hi There!
I am researching the SNOW and FELTMATE families of Nova Scotia ( as well as other related families ). I have a LENORE MCGLASHING ( B. Feb. 4, 1905 in Upper Cape, Westmorland, New Brunswick) married to WILLIAM ALDON SNOW, b. May 8, 1890 and d. Nov. 22, 1957 in Tatamagouche, N.S. He is buried in MacNutt's Cemetery, N.S. WILLIAM ALDON SNOW and LENORE MCGLASHING married May 26, 1924.

I figure Lenore is probably a relative of yours because McGlashing is not a common surname.

I have a list of their children if you are indeed interested. Let me know, and I'll send them to you!

Good Morning Patricia: Thanks so much for answering my post I very much appreciate the information. What a sad thing for the family losing a little one at only 2 days old - how awful. Well I'll keep going on my mission - somewhere a while ago I thought there was a Lloyd or Richard McGlashing out there in Calif. - I'll go through my very "disorganized" papers and see what I can find. Once again thanks so much. Take Care Sandi

I am searching for 2 of my grandfathers's bothers. They are Chalmers R b Tidnish, Nova Scotia 8/2/1883 and Lloyd A b Tidnish, Nova Scotia 8/1/1885. I know from a draft registration card he was in Phillips, Montana in 1917. Other than a birth date for Chalmers he totally disappears. If anyone would have information on either of them I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks for your help

Hello: I'am trying to locate any family members. My grandfather was Fred McGlashing from Tidnish and Amherst, Nova Scotia. In later years in the 1920's lived in Allston-Brighton area, also Malden for many years and then in Wilmington before passing away in the late 1970's. I believe he had a relative maybe an Uncle John from Everett that either had a car dealership or a car mechanic. Will look forward to hearing from family. Thanks Sandi
