| Am searching for John Eagleson, who was born in Ireland. I am not sure what year, but it would have been around 1840's. He died in Scotland in 1909. He married Caroline Eagleson, in County Durham, in 1878, and they moved to Govan, Glasgow, where his daughter was born. John had a sister Agnes, who died age 19, from TB, and his parents were John Eagleson, and Agnes Boyle or Boyd. Would be grateful for any help anyone can give me in finding where in Ireland either John Eagleson came from, as I would love to learn more about this family, As John Eagleson, was my Grt Grandfather. | |

Hi Margaret,The only one I ever came across in ireland was on the site i once sent you of Eaglesons.Its Strange that he does not show up on any other census.Do you think he could have been in the army or navy.And thats why we cant find him Mike |

Hi Mike Sorry I didn't get back to you but I have been away for 3 months and am only just catching up on everything. I don't know whether John Eagleson was ever in the army or navy, though it is certainly a possibility, as his wife originated from Dover, and was possibly married previously to an irish soldier who was staioned in barracks in Kent. Where would I find lists of Irish army members serving in England? Do such lists exist? I'm certainly not ready to give up the search for him yet!!! Thanks for your help Margaret |
