Marriage of Duncan McDonald & Elizabeth Richardson ?

Post by Lizzie » Sat Sep 01, 2007 9:09 pm

Just uploaded an image of the above Marriage 1888 and I think the Brides last Surname is Collins? Also, what is written about a form before Widow please?

This image brings even more questions as I cannot find her being married to a Collins.

Hello Lizzie,
All I can see is a census image of a McLean family and then a strange pattern below. Perhaps you could try to add it to the gallery again.

Yes Andrew, I uploaded it this morning after moving it to another area.
Sorry to be so stupid, and now May I ask what is a Power form and the word after ,before Widow? My grandfather, Robert John Richardson was witness, also May Hunter of who I cannot find but Elizabeth's only sister was Mary Jane

Spent the last few days searching for Elizabeth's first marriage to Joseph Collins. Looked through all the Joseph Collins deaths, to find his death but there is no record, must have been young. I found on the 1891 census living at 702 Garscube Road my gg grandmother with 2 unmarried sons and MARY COLLINS age 4. Underneath is Duncan McDonald with Elizabeth and Jessie age 2 and Marion age 8 months. I then found the death of Elizabeth 1915 at Sarasen St. Glasgow age 52. After a long day yesterday I eventually found the death of Duncan in 1938 at 243 Bardowie? St. Glasgow age 73.
The informant was Jessie McDonald. A disappointment here as she left no address. This morning was spent looking for Jessie with no success, but not too bad eh? I will press on regardless looking for Jessie and first son James b. 1898. I feel quite chuffed with myself today!

Hi Lizzie,
... and now May I ask what is a Power form and the word after ,before Widow?
Did you miss Andrew's post - it doesn't say Power form...it says that Lizzie was a Power Loom Weaver (widow)
I feel quite chuffed with myself today!
...and so you should be :) ...great feeling when you're successful, isn't it?

Regards,
Anne H
