Note on Husband: James Teevan

Granda (John Teevan b.1911) referred to him as 'big Jimmy Teevan who swam over from Ireland'!

 

John Gaffney and Mary Larkin witnessed the wedding between James and Eliza in 1860.

 

Was a collier in Allanton mine in April 1877 when he walked into an area with a naked flame, thereby causing an explosion in which another miner died. Spent two months in jail, during which time he suffered rheumatism (in addition to the severe burns on his hands and face from the explosion) before being sentenced to a further fortnight for culpable neglect of duty.

 

In 1881 he, Elizabeth Hannah and their children John J and William were living at 31 Benhar Coal Coys Houses, Shotts, Lanark - listed as married.

 

In 1901, he was living at his son William's house and listed as a widower. He died there later that year. His eldest son James signed the certificate.
