O'Neill

Post by **Pandabean** » Thu Sep 21, 2006 6:28 pm

Thought I was on a roll til I found that Patrick died in 1891 before the census but after the birth of his daughter.

I am having a couple problems with deciphering some of the certs:

Firstly Patrick's parents. At first I thought it was William but it seems to look like Philan?

Secondly I found that Annie (Roseanne) remarried to a Hunter between 1891 and 1901. I noticed that on the 1901 census there is a daughter called Euphemia "?" She was born in 1886 but I cant make out the second letter to do a search on her.

Hope someone can help.

Philan is not an uncommon Irish name.

I think it is Euphemia Peebles

Hi Andy

I cant magnify this but it looks to me like Peebles after Euphemia and i would agree with Philan.

Hi,

I would suggest the name Phelim for this and he has a famous namesake,

Possibly a relation.

Thanks for the names. I cant tell whether Patrick was born in Scotland or not as he doesnt appear on the census for 1891 and I havent looked at the 1881 census for him.

There are no death records on SP for a Philan O'Neill

So they did not come over to Scotland with their son.

I have uploaded the Marriage cert for Patrick and Rosanne (Annie) and on it, it has Patrick's mothers maiden name. Can anyone make it out?

Susan O'Keefe?, O'Reefe.

I also notice that one of the witnesses is Elizabeth O'Neill. So did the family all move together then?

Hello,

Perhaps you have this but this looks like Annie in 1881.

Hi,
