Trying to find out information about Jane Mckeown. I have no birth date at this point but believe she died around 1971. Janes father was John Mckeown born 1881/82, I think he was born in Ireland but spent some of his later life living in Droylsden. John had Jane during his first marriage but it appears he wife died (do not know first wife's name). John was then married for a second time in Chorlton in 1919 to Jane Walker (1886) and had two sons John Mckeown (1921) who was my grandad and Joseph Mckeown (1928). I dont really have much more information at this point but I believe finding out information about Jane could be the key to unlocking more information about the rest of the Mckeown family.
Many thanks

Hi Daren- no replies because not enough info given? Census death and marriage info etc needed any scrap will help best RF

Hi Darren did any of these Mckeown's live around the Black Country,Oldbury?

Hi. I not sure as my fathers side of the family never really talked about the Mckeown's origins. I grew up in Hyde, Cheshire, my father Saun Mckeown also grew up thier. His father John Mckeown was born in Audenshaw, Lancashire but im not sure any further back. There is always a chance the Mckeown's could have lived around Oldbury, Jane could have relocated there. I know the Mckeown's originally came from Ireland but do not yet know when.

Do you have this first marriage info? If so can you post it
