Looking for my Gorbals ancestors
Looking for my BOYLE family.....Patrick James Boyle was my grandfather, born 1908 in Glasgow although I cant find a birth record for Glasgow or Ireland. He died aged 38 at Eglinton Lane in 1946. His wife was Mary Boyle maiden name Kilkie, his parents were Rose Boyle maiden name Montford or Mountford and Francis Boyle who were married at St Johns church Portugal St Gorbals in 1901, living at 94 King St Tradeston. People might not make the connection as Patrick apeared to have no children but he had 8 who were taken into care at a young age and 1 dying at birth. Ruckhill Camp (check spelling)appears on some birth certs and my grandmother Mary re married in the early 50s havin 2 other children who I am intouch with but they have no knowledge of Patrick or his family. I think I have a brother and sister for Patrick who are...Agnes Boyle born 1901 at what looks like 29 Queen Mary St Bridgeton and John Boyle born 1904 at what looks like 213 London Road Camlachie Glasgow. It would be good to know of any other relatives and has anyone seen a grave for any of the above names? I have a long list of names connected to this family now so if anyone thinks this sounds famillier to them and can give me even a snippet of info then please contact me Patrick was also in the Pioneers.........EDITED........I also have the addresses South Portland St Gorbals,Oregon St Gorbals,Roukenburn St Thornleighbank,and Naburn St Gorbals for this family.Somebody must know something,some of the names or relatives to them,Perhaps you were a nosey neighbour,perhaps your mum,aunt or grans maiden name was Boyle or your uncle,grandad,cousin whatever was married to a Boyle? Whitness's at Mary and Patricks wedding in 1935 at St Franc's Church were G Byrne,George Duffie and Susan Carre.
