Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi Donald
Funny indeed.
But many thanks indeed.
We are all due a lucky break every now and then.

I agree that it's unlikely we'll get much more info on Angus.
But never say never.

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi Donald Many thanks for your message. John had emailed me the 3 Pension scans back on 01Mar15. I've now had a good look at the Pension log re the date of death 30Oct or 03Oct. It's not the word "of" or is it 03Oct. The clerk who scribed the entries had a habit of running his pen from the...

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi to John, Donald, Kyle, et al Sorry I haven't been visiting the site much in recent times. I've been outwith the UK for most of the past 6 months. I've just returned from Florida - OK so I'm a poor senior who likes travelling !!! I do however expect to be at home here in Scotland for the next 4 mo...

Hi John & Donald I've now searched Carmichael Watson CW106 001-132, CW120 001-344, CW122 001-201 & CW126 001-051. The following appear of interest and sort of repeat some of the previous info viz CW106/28 An Gorm mor liv at Ach an duin. He made meetg with the evil one to fight him f. 9r He t...

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi guys - 3rd post of the day I've spent many hours on the Carmichael Watson site today. I've been thro the complete CW120 (refs 001-344). I haven't looked in any detail at the Dr Livingstone genealogical notes. Of interest are CW120/15 "Mac-an-lé-mor a Chaist (Chaisteil) was last who occ (occu...

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi John - Donald An update after a couple of hours trawling Carmichael Watson. It convinces me that it needs research by someone very well versed in the Livingstones. There are Dr Livingstone genealogical notes as well. It also poses a question. Do we know of a man named "An Gorm Mor" (kno...

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi John & Donald I trawled the Carmichael Watson site a few days ago. You can actually bring up the folio pages. Enter CW126f/68 into the search and you see the original docs. The original handwriting is terrible - thank goodness there's a translation. Clicking on 'diplomatic' improves the text....

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi John & Donald I've been outwith UK a lot since last December (just back from Florida). Now back catching up with the forum. Re the Carmichael Watson collection at University of Edinburgh. John, if you don't manage to get there, I'll volunteer to do it. I live 20mins west of Edinburgh airport....

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi John Thanks for that re Janet & Andrew. I have a 1927 extract of Janets birth certificate. I viewed the original on fiche in 2001 and I recall it being poor. On my extract it has the witness "Janet Lillie her X mark Aunt present". She is in fact Janet Little (even the registrar who ...

Re: Angus Livingstone& Margaret (Hall/McPhail), Shiaba, Mul

Hi John From the Glasgow & West Of Scotland FHS publication on Glasgow addresses I confirm that James St. was renamed Bryce St. & Union St was renamed Moncur St. Can't give you a year however I would guess 1846. It was in 1846 that Calton (+Anderston, Gorbals & much of Barony) was brough...
