Well I am totally stumped I have just managed to get Margarets death cert on Scotlands people which is correct as you say 1895. There is nothing for a william death to be found anywhere.

I also got his sons Samuels marriage and on it says under name of father and mother William Morgan and Helen morgan .. Quinn ( desceased)
This is a bit puzzling as I am wondering if Helen is his first wife (marageret quinn) sister as that was her maiden name also.

However i cannot see a marriage of helen and william on Scot people either. Has anyone got any ideas please.

Also margaret died in Kilwinning so how would I go about finding what cemetry she would be in ? Perhaps as you say william will be in the same plot.

Ps I did check different districts in Ayrshire when I did the searches.
Thanks all

As you said Summer ,he's in the 1901 Census in Kilwinning.As his Children were all over in Scotland,can't see any reason for him to go back to Ireland.Sorry i have no units left in Scotlandspeople at the moment. 7 William Morgans came up.He could have died in Kilmarnock,Irvine ,Kilwinning,don't just go for Kilwinning ones.

William Morgan still alive in 1908 when son Samuel married.

I will need to try and get Margarets death cert but I have just looked on Scotlands people and I cant see it there. I must be doing something wrong as I have her dod 1895 and I know it was a tragic accident. I also believe she stayed at Byrehill Rd Kilwinning ayrshire at the time of her death.

How come I am unable to get this on Scotlands People, am I doing it wrong ?

I would be checking out the address on Margaret's Death Cert.and see if it corresponds with the Wm Morgan Kilwinning " 1914" Leven Cottage that Ellen has posted.

Thanks everyone for all your help you have all been so kind. I have the date of Margaret Quinns death as 1895 but it didnt occur to me to that they may have been buried in the same place, so thanks for that. As she died at only 52 I wondered if william returned to Ireland and that was how I couldnt find a death cert in Scotland.

Someone also mentioned that his middle name John may have been used and I have tried this to and still no luck.

Please, if there is anymore info I will be most grateful.

Thank you

Miss Margaret QUINN . Down regd. Downpatrick; wife of John Morgan ; mother of Jane Margaret b. 1868

AS i see Margaret died in the 1890's in Kilwinning ,i should think she was buried in Kilwinning.So i think William would have been buried in the same plot.

The 1904 deaths on Ancestry are all in family trees and none have a source.

There is a death in Kilwinning in 1908, with a DOB of 1826 - perhaps a bit old to be your Morgan but might be worth looking at.

Found this birth, maybe he went by his middle name

. John MORGAN . Down regd. Downpatrick ; husband of Margaret Quinn ; father of Jane Margaret b. 10 Apr 1868

Have you located Margaret's death...? May be worthwhile checking for hers see if they are buried together...

Can't find a death but found his marriage & possible birth

Ellen

Thank you very much for these links that I was not aware of, hopefully they will be of great use to me.

I did have a look at the family search link ( the first one ) but I am not sure if I am missing something as it didnt seem to show deaths in Ireland as late as 1901 or am I just getting it wrong.?

The problem is I am not sure where he died scotland or Ireland although ancestry says 1904 ayrshire, scotland but this is all I can see and still cant get a cert.

I appreciate your help
Many thanks
