Anne Eleanor Macdonald

Looking for husband's family. Anne Eleanor Hutchinson migrated to Australia and married William Boardman. It is believed that she had been married before to a Mr Hutchinson, and that her maiden name was Macdonald (not sure of the spelling). It is believed that she migrated to Scotland, with her birth place as Larne, Antrim (noted on a descendants marriage certificate as Scotland) but in my research could only find Larne, Antrim, Ireland.

You don't mention an approximate birth year ofr her

There are 3 Eleanor McDonald (+ surname variants) from Antrim on www.rootsireland.ie/: 1730, 1751 & 1863; none is from Inver (Larne) but the only Inver records are C of I; do you know her religion?

Thank you,  We believe she was born about 1888 - not other details, of day, month or religion.  Will keep trying.  Kindest regards, Julie

UPDATE. 6 Apr 2020

Have found WW1 record of a Norman Francis MacDonald, which shows that Annie Elleanor was a widow of his, then married William Boardman.  Her BIRTH details are as follows:  Annie Ellen Hutchinson in the Ireland, Civil Registration Births Index, 1864-1958, with Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1890; Registration District: Larne; Birth Country: Ireland; Volume: 1; Page: 676; FHL Film Number: 1010063.

Would like to know the Parish and how to obtain Birth Certificate.

Hi Julie,

I don't have access to www.rootsireland.ie/ at the moment so can't check the parish

  1. A photocopy of an entry in any register can be purchased from the General Register Office by downloading the form here and submitting it by e-mail, fax or post as outlined on the form, or
