Hi

Thanks for the tremendous response.

Unfortunately, I have only one reference to the name Gick and that Margaret came from the Isle of Man. This comes from two grand-daughters of Margaret in a letter to my father back in 1954. Other than that I have no information.

I have searched now for over 20 years (without success) to find the marriage of Margaret and John Murray in Liverpool or IOM around 1841. Similarly I cannot find a marriage for Margaret and ? Carran prior to this date.

Worse still, I cannot find the birth certificate of her son, John Murray around 1841/2 in Liverpool.

However, I do have a couple of census records

1881 – Margaret Murray, mother, widow, 74, born Kirk Malew, Isle of Man
(in the house of her only? son, John, age 39)
1861 – Margaret Murray, servant, widow, 50, monthly nurse, Isle of Man
1851 – Margaret Murray, head, widow, 40, charwoman, Isle of Man
(with her son, John age 10, born Liverpool)

I think I have also found Margaret in the 1871 census, but it shows her coming from Ireland.

All the other information in the letter to my father has proven correct, but maybe my great-great aunties just got the name wrong. I have pondered this, but thought it unlikely given the uniqueness of the name.

I now tend to believe that the Margaret Carran in the 1841 Census isn’t my Margaret, but I can’t yet discount that. It would have been a very quick move from IOM to Liverpool and have a child in such a short space of time. If it was the case, what happened to the daughter Cath?

I have also looked for a birth/bapt for a Margaret Carran around 1807 without success.
