| Email: herthull@netconnect.com.au My Gt.GT. Grandmother Hannah TAYLOR married in 1829 Robert HORSFIELD in
Beverley E. Yorks. On census returns her birth place is Scotland. By a long process of
elimination and family legend, she was probably the Hannah born in Alloa Dec 20th 1812 dau
of James & Mary GALLOWAY (ref prof. researcher Rosemary Bigwood's, research) James of
the glassworks (have details of the works). Family went to Glasgow in the same trade
before 1841 and I have details of her brothers, James & John.,on 1851 & 1881
census - Milton ward. Hannah probably a dom servant before she married Robert. No trace
yet of the father James, am gradually searching the 1841 census of Glasgow and burials
(not during civil reg). I have no proof that this is my Hannah but have her on my
documents as "possible".
I was born in Hull and emigrated in 1978. and am a retired prof. genealogist specialising
in obtaining documents for Aussies, from England & Scotland. My husband is of
Irish/Eng. descent.
