Hi Gene,

Up a bit late tonight, I have had two enquiries today about Queens in
Scotland and Ireland. I know there is a lady looking in Wigtownshire for
Queens also but will track her down through rootsweb. Queen does not seem a
very popular name in Scotland so there are not many more census listings. I
have a few more which I will put online. The problem is they all have the
same first name and are about the same age it is all Owen, Patrick, James
and the women are all Catherine or Elizabeth.

I don't know where the name originates from in Ireland as census only lists
Ireland I have found one that is listed as Fermanagh (in the gorbals in
Glasgow) they are all also coal miners and agricultural labourers and all
seem to be illiterate.

Greetings Sharon,

Thank you for your posts and your question.

There are only a few persons subscribed to the list. When I originated it
some years ago it was my hope that it would become an active list for Queens

in Scotland and Europe. Regretfully, this has not been the case. After my
retirement in a couple of months, I will try other ways to get the word out
and encourage use of the list by our Scottish "kin".

Gene
