There is this birth:

Ireland, Civil Registration Indexes, 1845-1958

name: William John Cassidy
registration district: Donegal
event type: BIRTHS
registration quarter and year: Oct - Dec 1887
volume number: 2

digital folder number: 4193975

The info you have on Joanna Pozzi is correct, as the Pozzi`s originated from Italy and were a family of Jewellers. The family did move and for a time were the Keepers at Elgin Castle.

On the 1911 Census it states that Wiliam and Elizabeth had 2 children but only one living child, and they had been married for 3 years at this time and they married on 23.8.1907 so this would make it correct family.

The first 1911 census ... for William John Cassidy

District of Pollokshields.

There are 2 William Cassidys living with a Mary in the Govan district in 1911. Have you checked them out please?

Sorry, Charlotte, should have said; it is the 1911. Don't know the area but it is the only one if searching all of Scotland.

Hi Rootgatherer,
This is great, your Cassiday and i am looking for Cassidy....maybe that has been the problem??
Cheers

Charlotte, there is only one William John Cassidy with an Elizabeth (or a Mary) in the same household coming up on scotlandspeople. Have you look at that one to eliminate it?

Hi,
I cannot find them on the census on Scotlands People.
Char

Have you found any of them on the 1911 census to check their birthplaces please?
