John McDade and Elizabeth Beattie Hi there, I'm looking for any information about my great grandfather. His name was John McDade. He was father to my grandmother Margaret Anne McDade, and her mother was Elizabeth Beattie. John McDade and Elizabeth never married, I'm told because of their families and religious differences. My mother Margaret remembers him walking by her grandmothers house, and looking up at the window. Apparently neither of them ever married, and when Elizabeth died he couldn't even go to her funeral, but stood and watched from a distance. My mother has always wanted to know more about her grandfather, and I would be grateful for any information anyone has. We think Elizabeth was born around 1890, and she died in 1961. Her and John's daughter Margaret Anne, was born around 1910, and married Andrew Martin around 1930. She died in 1949.
