1. Pre 1855 deaths for West Renfrewshire by Lesley Couperwaite [1]
Can anyone help? I have seen this booklet on Google. I have been trying to find it with no luck. On Glasgow F.H.S. i found a pre 1855 Monumental In scriptions but as I have the Pre 1855 Inscriptions by Alison Mitchel l , it would not be much help to me. My sister has a booklet Pre 1855 deaths for Ayrshire, it gives deaths and what they died from. We have found some relatives in this that did not have Monumental Inscriptions, and this is what I hoped to find by Lesley Couperwaite. As anyone
2. Renfrew family [1]
I have a database of Renfrews and have Margaret Renfrew and and James Philip. I found on the Internet some time ago, information on this family and Margaret died 25/7/1834 in Ohio.

I don't have the McAlister name on my list. quite a few Elizabeths. do you have any more information on them. Marion Renfrew Affleck

Lorraine, Susan Scott is a real mystery, it says sister in law to James McKILL on the 1851 census. This is the first time that I have come across the name Scott.If she is the sister of Margaret McKILL nee HARKNESS/HERCULES and all the varients of this name. Margaret's parents were Margaret SHAW and the dratted Joseph HERCULES/HARKNESS. Margaret Shaw's Parents were James Shaw and Susan Dick. I cannot find a Scott anywhere, Susan was suppose ro be single. So this mystery will have to wait until
5. RE: [Renfrew] Pre 1855 deaths for West Renfrewshire by Lesley Couperwaite [1]
Unfortunately, I can't help you but I was wondering, since you have a book in your posession listing the MI's for pre 1855, would it be possible for you to see if a Peter McAllister is included? He died in an accident while working for the 5th Duke of Argyle.

13. Sneddon Poorhouse 1752-1764 [1]
Have just received my copy of Sneddon Poorhouse. What little I have read of it is very enlightning and a little sad. Found some members of my family , had a little smile though apparently My g.g.g.grandfather ran away with two others and when they were brought back they were warned if they did it again they would not be allowed back in the house.I have also got a booklet of the Paisley Almhouse. Off now to have a quiet read Jean
14. Re: [Renfrew] Query about baptisms on Old Parish Registers [1]
Well, after I found my Bruce ELLIS/ALICE on the IGI as Alice BRUCE, I'd be prepared to believe anything. Admittedly that's not the original PR, which was probably completed correctly, but someone being a bit clever in interpreting it for transcription. You'd expect the minister to know his parishioners, but it may have been a large parish and I believe that the registers were often written up by the curate, who may not have performed the baptism.

15. Re: [Renfrew] Query about baptisms on Old Parish Registers [1]
Dear Jeanette, I really am starting to feel that maybe my reasoning is not so wild after all. It seems stramge to me that only Ninian is missing. I know I have had some funny spellings of the surname and allowing for this and searching through all the batch numbers in Renfrew, I have not managed to find his birth. Well I shall have to keep an open mind because I will never be able to prove it. Jean

19. NEVER GIVE UP ON GENEALOGY [1]
I have just got to share this with the list. You probably have seen my E Mails about the name HERCULES and some other various spellings. In a certain time frame 1765-1785 I could not find various members. I managed to get Army Records etc. but no births. Today was D DAY. I decided to look up the Batch number for Abbey Paisley which was C115598 and entered that in the relevent box plus region British Isles, Scotland and renfrew. Just clicked and got on to Abbey and trawled down all the names on that b
20. OPR Birth Cert - No mother named [1]
I have received the birth certificate for my ancestor Andrew (Greenock Old or West) 1818 but there is no mother's name (unlike everyone else on the page). Why would this be? The father is William McIntyre and, because of naming patterns, I believe that the mother is Marion. I have found a marriage for William and Marion in 1803. I have also found other children on IGI of William and Marion and William and Manie from 1804 to 1816. So next question, if this is the same family, why would Mario

24. Query about baptisms on Old Parish Registers [1]
Does anybody know whether or not the minster would have done his records straight after a christening or if it was likely he entered a few at a time. The reason I ask this is on one of mine James was put down as William and they said his father's name was James so the father and son's name werereversed. As you know they usually say lawful or legal son or daughter etc. My problem is that I have been looking for a Ninian Hercules born about 1780 in Paisley. I got the date from his Army
