Hi everyone,
I'm looking for any info on the Devine family from the Partick area of Glasgow.

Father James married Helen(Bell) had sons James, William, Dennis & daughters Martha & Elizabeth.

Not had any luck finding any info on anyone listed above, if anyone can provide any leads I would be grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Hi poacher

A warm welcome to Talking Scot. I do hope the site will be of help to you.

One question which could help in a search. Can you tells us in what year the family you're looking for should be in Partick. Have you any idea at all of a marriage date?

Best wishes.

Catriona

Thank you for your kind welcome.

My father was born in 1936 and it is his father & brothers I am looking for, I cant be exact but I estimate it would be from 1890-1900 giving the average age of marrying etc would be approx 20 years old.

I know my fathers father married Helen Bell who was originally married to John Bell = 2 kids-Helen & John (Johnny) Bell, they came down from Stornoway(not originally though).

I know these details are sketchy but it's all I have got so far.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

Cheers
