Now i believe Dominick was in the army, 2nd East Lancs regiment in the First World War, anyone have ideas about his record?

Think moving to Manchester was to get away from the gloom of their kids dying in Glasgow as well as his parents being in the poorhouse!

Ooh thanks Tempest, and the father in law is there from ireland!! WOW!

Its just what someone told me who is subscribed to Ancestry.ca. They found my KEATING (O'Donnell) leaving Halifax in 1933. Must get a copy of that passenger list. Also, Dominick Keating has left Canada for Manchester and is on th UK census in 1901 & 1911.

Dominick Keating moved his family to Loom St, Manchester apparently on the 1901 census. Havent seen it yet though and are in George Leigh St in 1911. They had bad luck with kids in Glasgow so went to Manchester for a better life i think.

UK census? Is this something new and is it on Ancestry or somewhere else?

Which one ?

Born when and where ?

Ive just found that one of the Keatings left Glasgow for Manchester so will be on the 1901 & 1911 UK census i believe!!!

The valuation rolls for Glasgow 1913-1914 can be checked online ... by address only.

Where can I access the online 'street index' you refer to ?

Oh priesty Rose, thats my Jean born in 1905.

Walter Alexander is the father in law of Charles Keating(father of my gran) but their relationship isnt listed. Just listed as lodger. Ive seen a couple of pictures of Water St and its mostly empty. The street index available online doesnt have many people listed in Water St in 1911/12.
What/wheres the valuation rolls?

Is Walter Alexander living with the Keatings in 1911 at Water St, in the district of Maryhill. What relation is Alexander to the 'Head of the house'

Checked the valuation roll for 1913 - 1914 and there are no families with that name still living at Water St.

There is however an Alexander R Alexander (Inspector) living at 24 Walter St ... just in case it was a typing error.

Ive just noticed that the 1911 census that my gran is missing on, her uncle Walter Alexander is a musician. Any ideas how i can find anything on him. The Alexanders were living at Water St, Glasgow, couldnt find them in the street index though.

Well I found my grans siblings, father and grandparents in the same house but no sign of her or her mother. There was a rumour of the mother being sent to prison once but i thought this a rumour and thats all. Maybe its true but surely my gran wouldnt be there as she was only 5.

Thanks everyone. Once i get a payment sorted over the weekend, i'll be doing the old ordering etc, getting it wrong until the right one appears lol

The only little girls I can see about the right age of that surname are Jessie age 4, Maggie age 7, Margaret age 7, and Mary age 5.

Mark n Ali,

As you'll see from the website you can use only Visa, Maestro, Mastercard, Solo or you can order a voucher by cheque but if you're not happy with Visa................

A preliminary search of the 1911 census shows 3 Charles Keating, 1 from Glasgow as well as several Mary Keating BUT no Mary with Charles or Charles with Mary or any sign at all of any child named Jane, Jeanie, Janet Keating.
Are you sure they stayed in Scotland.

There may be some variations in the spellings but you will understand that at £1.17 a pop. it's not cheap to search out any possibilities.
