I have been researching my family on and off over the last few years. Have been stuck for some time finding ancestors in Ireland before they came to Scotland.
Have 1891 Census record for Hugh Airlie (Head), 7 Ferry Road, Renfrew (not to be confused with Thomas Airlie, head, 5 Ferry Road - although they may be related??). Hugh is shown as born in Ireland, 56 years of age, lives with his wife Annie (nee McKay) and 6 children, James, Hugh, Mary, Easther, John and Robert.
I have a record of his death which shows he died in September 1905 in Renfrew at the age of 58 (although I think this is wrong when compared with the census details). His parents are shown as James Airlie, Farmer and Esther Airlie, nee Palmer. I am assuming both from Ireland. I have searched the usual free Irish genealogy sites for a marriage of James and Esther and birth of Hugh, but can find nothing, even using the alternative name options.
Can anyone tell me where I could possibly go next. I have no idea where in Ireland they may be from or their ages, or if they had other children. Any help would be appreciated.
