Greenock is in Renfrewshire (the county name). There is no Greenwich in Scotland that I know of.

I’m trying to find records of a marriage between Heloise Marie Serisier and Count de Moro in Cuba between 1835-1845.

Thanks Alan for the help. Greenwich is indeed a city in England but it is also a county (or whatever they are called in the U.K.) in Scotland and Greenock is there. That’s the way it was explained to me and thus far, I have found nothing to refute it. Thanks again…

Hi Robert

Greenock and Greenwich are two different places. Greenock is in Scotland near Glasgow, while Greenwich is in England and is part of Greater London. I’ve taken a look at the Scottish records and found very few people named Henning – certainly none near Greenock. There are some Hennings in Greenwich, but I’m afraid I couldn’t find a John Hooper Henning.

Best regards

Alan

I am trying to find the names of my maternal ancestry. My grandfather (Auslin Elsworth Henning) was born on Grand Cayman, his father was Sterling Rivers Henning (also born on Grand Cayman) and his father was John Hooper Henning from Greenock, Greenwich, Scotland. I would like to know the names of those preceding John Hooper Henning (who his parents were etc.).
