Looking at the family of John SHERIDAN & Elizabeth PRINGLE in the 1871 and 1861 census, I see that he was born in Ireland. The family were living in a cottage on the farm of Glasnick, parish of Penninghame is both 1861 and 1871, and their last born child Elizabeth was born 31 Aug 1872 in that parish, so I figured that's likely where he died in 1873. Turning to <http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/>, I see from the index that a John SHERIDAN died in that parish, age 44, in 1873. I just happen to have the details of that registration on file: John Sheridan, Ploughman, married to Elizabeth Pringle 1873, March seventh, 8h 0m am, Laigh Glasnick, Parish of Penninghame M[ale] 44 years (Parents) Peter Sheridan, Packman, deceased _ Sheridan, M.S. _, deceased Pneumonia & Gangrene  of Lung, as certified by R. B. Selby M. D, & Surgeon (Informant) Peter Sheridan, Son, Ploughman, Knockycoid, Parish of Arnsheen   Arnsheen was a Quoad Sacra parish, the church being in Barhill village, Aryshire. Knockycoid farm is on the B7027, about 4 km SE of Barrhill as the crow flies. Low (Laigh) Glasnick farm is about 22 km SW of Barrhill as the crow flies. It is 2 km NE of Kirkcowan village. According to both the 1861 and 1871 census, Elizabeth PRINGLE was born in the parish of Wigtown. From the index at http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk ,  Elizabeth McKAY other surname PRINGLE, died Kirkmabreck parish age 74 in 1905. It will take 6 credits o download the details, which should give the names of her parents. Hopefully the informant knew. (It seems that her son Peter SHERIDAN didn't know who his father's mother was.) When I tried to find her in the1841and 1851 census, the closest match I found was a 19 year old purported have been born parish of Mochrum in the 1851 census for Mochrum parish. Interestingly, she was a servant with one of my families, namely Anthony DICKSON & Catherine ROUTLEDGE. Regards, Bruce ------------------------------- The Wigtownshire Pages have moved!
