    3. My Grandfather James O'Toole (later renamed McCabe) was born in Lurgan workhouse on the 2-Mar-1901. I believe from an abbreviated birth certificate that his mother was Eliza O'Toole. I know he moved to the Govan area of Glasgow when he was quite young. The problem I have is in this house in Govan he lived with an Alice McCabe (nee O'Toole) and Thomas McCabe, who both are listed as his parents on his wedding certificate, so,Was this an error or did Eliza die during childbirth, or did Eliza have the child But her sister (?) bring him up? Was Alice an only child? (Her parent's names were William O'Toole and Rebecca O'Toole (nee McDonald) Or were Eliza and Alice around at the same time?? Could you please point me in the right direction on how to solve this puzzle? Thanks in advance. Bruce McLachlan bruce@mcbrucie.co.uk
