Upload the image into the Gallery, some kind soul will offer suggestions.
Searching for Keogh, Kelly, Fitzgerald, Riddell, Stewart, Wilson, McQuilkin, Lynch, Boyle, Cairney, Ross, King, McIlravey, McCurdy, Drennan and Woods (to name but a few).

Also looking for any information on Rathlin Island, County Antrim, Ireland.

Thanks Andrew for that.
I am looking at the MALCOLM / TAYLOR entry.
Interesting that you think the Taylor M S name is Yuill.
What I was hoping for is McLEAN :?

Cheers Momat.

Hello Momat,

Perhaps you have this but an Elizabeth McLean Malcolm died in Greenock in 1897.

I think I can see this lady on the 1881 census but don't want to confuse you by posting it as I don't know what you are looking for.

Hi Annette,

The document I have is for the marriage of her Son and it states that she is deceased ,this is 1861 so it can't be her
Thanks
Momat.
