Jane Galloway of High Paisley was born to William Galloway & Jane Gordon in 1803. I have no further information about her parents or grandparents, and wondering if someone can help. I don't know when her parents married, nor do I know if she had any other siblings.

She was known as Jeanie Galloway.

Both parents (William & Jane) were deceased at the time of Jane's marriage in 1878.

Mary, sorry. Jane Galloway (Jnr) the one born in 1803, first married on 22 Feb 1824 Paisley aged 23 to Peter Grieve (a Shawl Weaver) and then on 18 Aug 1856 to Thomas Andrew (also a Shawl Weaver)

Her parents were both Warpers and her parents William and Jane Galloway (formerly Gordon) were both deceased at the time of her (Jane Andrew's) death on 3 January 1878 aged 74.

But haven't you got images of her marriage records too?

I thought I had - they may be on my daughters computer - I'll ring her.

Rang daughter - she says I've asked her that before - we must have got it from the IGI records. I'm looking now, but can only get births as they are having technical difficulties.

I can't see the marriage on Scotlandspeople; the only one for a couple with the right names is in 1848.

All my Jane Gordons switch their names from Jane to Jean to Janet with annoying regularity.

It's the 1856 marriage certificate that could be the most useful and it is on Scotland's People. It should have information about her parents, for instance.

I had a quick look at the censuses; in 1851 she's widowed and living with her son John Grieve and his son, but she's calling herself Jean Galloway. Is that usual in Scotland?
kiterunner
22-01-12, 13:13
Yes, it was very common for married women to keep their maiden name in Scotland.

Kite - How do I go about ordering this marriage cert - I presume its the Jean Galloway/Thomas Andrew one you are talking about. I couldn't find it in Scottish people.

Mary - thanks for finding Jean in the 1851 census - I didn't know she had a son John. Does it cost anything to download? I'm assuming Jean isn't on the 1841 or 1871 census?
Mary from Italy
22-01-12, 20:34
Sorry, I assumed you had access to the censuses on Ancestry. I think I also found her after her second marriage, but I don't think I found her in 1841 - I'll have another look, and PM you with the details I found.

Ancestry doesn't have images of the Scottish censuses, unfortunately - not sure if ScotlandsPeople does.

No I don't have Ancestry, Mary - I can go to the library tho.

Do you know when her first husband Peter died?
Mary from Italy

I'm still not finding an obvious family in 1841. There's a Peter Grieve with wife Mary and son John of the right age, and other children, living in Paisley, but I can't find a Jean/Jane who's either widowed or married to a Peter.

Jean's little grandson, John, who was with his widowed father in 1851, is a pauper scholar in Paisley Poorhouse in 1861, poor lad. Can't see his father, and I can't see him in 1871.

You don't have to order it, just buy some credits on Scotland's People and you can view it right away. Statutory Registers Marriages -
male surname Andrew male forename Thomas female surname Galloway female forename Jean year range 1856-1856. County is Renfrew and district is Paisley.

Kate & Mary - I am having issues with ScotlandPeople, can't log in - and am waiting to hear back from them (2 days) -

When I can log in, will look for Peter Grieves death and Thomas Andrew & Jean Galloway's marriage.
