Hi I am tracing a McGleish/McGreish family. Hugh Kerr b1797-1800 in Cty Antrim married Margaret McGleish or possibly McGreish. Their son and possibly siblings emig to Dalry Ayrshire circa 1845. Thomas married Elizabeth Lauchlan 1851 and died 1855. The death cert has his parents names as above both deceased. My grandfather was Thomas & Eliz son. Any connections? Regards, Karen

Hi Karen, Cannot assist you at this stage.
|
My great grandmother was Ellen McGreish. She was married to Thomas and they came from Ireland to West Kilbride. My grandfather was James McGreish, his brother Patrick. The family plot is in the public cemetry in West Kilbride, where my mother Mary Jean McGreish was raised. Her brother was Daniel and his ashes rest there.
|
My mother was born Ellen McGreish in Toronto 1937. Her parents were from Scotland. Euphamia ? and Rennie McGreish.

Hi, Patrick b c1844 , Mary b c1840 and children Elizabeth, Daniel, Ann, Susan and Mary are part of my research. Patrick's parents were Daniel and Ann[Mulherron]; Mary's parents were Duncan McLeish and Elizabeth Good.

Euphemia and Rennie McGreish were my Granparents and I'd like to know if there are any McGreish related in the Bradford area. We have lost contact with our Uncle Rennie (born Aug. 11, 1941) children and Uncle Dan's (born Sept. 26, 1933)children. I have run across the name in a yearbook.
