The Kintyre Forum

When my father(Daniel(aka Don) Scally) married in 1959,he brought my mother to Campbeltown to visit the relatives. My grandfather(James(Jimmy)Scally introduced my mum to a lady called FLORENCE MCSPORRAN, who he said was his cousin.
When I was researching the family tree recently I discovered that my gt grandmother's sister, Janet McLarty had married a John McSporran and their daughter, Flora was born in 1892.(My mother said she was elderly). I thought that this was the lady.
However in a recent conversation with my aunt, she said the woman was the daughter of Euphemia Scally, her aunt and that McSporran was her married name. As far as I knew Euphemia Scally married Peter Lang in Glasgow 1914 and their son was born in Campbeltown in 1915 and that they had only the one son. Both Euphemia and her son died in Campbeltown in 1978. Does anyone recognise the names? Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, Karen

You would think someone would know something here? Plenty o Scallys and McSporrans in the toon?

Let's hope so, because I'm stumped.

Karen.

What a great facility this is. Thanks to the board someone contacted me(Florence McSporran is her husband's great aunt) and I found out that the lady in question is still alive. Thanks again, Karen.

This is just the thing that this forum is great for - brilliant idea! Kudos to the boys!!!!!!!!!!!![/i]
