    Researching the following families;
    Kitchin & Sharpe, Cumberland, Canada, USA : Dixon, Lancashire, Westmorland, USA
    Fell & Hanslow, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, USA Australia.
    Guess, Buckinghamshire : Meakins, Northamptonshire

    Hello,

    RE MARGARET MCGARRY born 1928

    Both parents of the McGarry children died c1933-34. I have discovered that the children were brought up by one of their aunts on the McGarry side of the family. Which one I don't know. Michael McGarry, their father, had 4 sisters:

    Mary Ann b.1890, lived Hyde, Manchester,

    Jane b.1897, born Liverpool,

    Ellen b.1899, born Liverpool and

    Margaret b.1888 lived Liverpool.

    Her sister Helen McGarry m. Duncan Milne 1952. Died Motherwell, Lanarkshire 1984.

    Her other sister Catherine m. James Lawson 1954. Died Bury, Lancashire 1985.

    Apart from her birth details the only other information I have on Margaret is that she died c.1988 and that she was known as "Peggy"

    Thanks for helping
