Find Ancestors

me again Emma!!! [sorry] Message from my friend

Grateful thanks to Emma please pass on my gratitude. Bit "confused" (not hard I know) will have to search out locations when I get up there, I have a Margaret born 11/9/1829 to John & Anne whose siblings were Alexander b 3/12/1831, Elizabeth b 27/1/1828, Ann b 11/5/1822, John and twin Marjory b 15/10/1925
Ann, John & Marjory were born in Advie, the otherthree were born in Keith Banff so some things link but others a bit "grey" mind you perhaps thats where I get my grey hair from!!
The mother Ann(e) Dickson I had as born 2/1/1802 with siblings Margaret b 9/91805, and Elizabeth b 4/2/1808. There parents were a Luke Dickson and a Margaret Cameron which may be wrong as I was given this info back in 1988!!


He's on his way to Scotland this afternoon and taking laptop with him - he's keen I'll say that for him - so if you can come up with anything else I can pass it on - please donlt feel obliged to in any way - you have given so much time already

Hi Emma,

Not sure if this is still open and not sure if you can help.

I am looking for the daeth off a James king between 1871-1881.

This is him in 1871 census

1871 Scotland Census

Name: James King
Age: 42
Estimated birth year: abt 1829
Relationship: Head
Spouse's name : Agnes
Gender: Male
Where born: Barony, Lanark
Registration Number: 622/3
Registration district: Shettleston
Civil parish: Shettleston
County: Lanarkshire
Address: 7 Main St (back Sq)
Occupation: Collin (umfit Forermal)
ED: 12
Household schedule number: 12
Line: 1
Roll: CSSCT1871_117

James King 42
In 1881 his wife is living at 50 Main st Tollcross she is a widow. MS Agnes Anderson born 1829 Tollcross
His parents should be Henry & Elizabeth

I would have thought that his death would have been in this area.
I have looked at this below and it his not him.And no other deaths in the area they are living.

1872 KING JAMES M 45 OLD MONKLAND (MIDDLE DISTRICT) /LANARK 652/02 045

The last child born Peter c1873 Tollcross.

I am hoping that the name king hasn't been mispelt being Kane kean.

Thanking you

Alison

Barbara,

Yeah that's fine .. I'll go get it just now for you

Emma

Ann,

There is a marriage ...

Marriage of John Cameron & Ann Dickson
25th July 1822
Cromdale & Inverallan - Moray

On the marriage parish it looks like daughter of John Dickson but it's not very clear



I was looking at deaths for John Cameron in the same area and the only one that it may have been was ..

John Cameron
Pauper
(married)
3 November 1858
8h AM
Mains of Tulloch
51 Years Old
Father - Donald Cameron - Farmer (deceased)
Mother - Jane Cameron m/s Smith
Cause of death - Enteritis 6days
Buried in the Churchyard of Kincadine
Registered by Lewis Cook - Sub-Inspector of Poor
Registered on 9th November 1858
ABERNETHY & KINCARDINE - MORAY

Is there any chance you know if they stayed in the Moray area?

You may be able to match up their kids names with their parents names to get a definate - usually they just used the same names over and over throughout the family.



Had a quick look at births for a John Cameron & Ann Dickson ...

Marjory Cameron *twin i'm guessing*

There is other children - but i'm not sure these are related because there's 1 child - Margaret - that was born on the 20th october 1825 too and would be a triplet of Marjory and John but she was registered in a different parish .. so highly doubtful but they are ...

Hi Emma - wonder if you would be able to find anything on John Cameron who married Ann Dickson in Advie, Elgin in 1822 - would be most appreciativee of your help here

Ann

Hi Emma

thank you for your kind offer. I am looking for a marriage and/or a death of Mary McNaught born 1 Aug 1887. Her father was John McNaught (a policeman) who would be deceased at the time of any marriage. He died when Marywas very young. Her mother was Sarah(maiden name Conroy). Sarah could have remarried by the time of any marriage and her name was Gow or Hyslop.

Any help much appreciated.

Barbara

Thank you very much for looking, Emma.
Perhaps William and Sarah didn't get married at all!!!!
Their second child was called Mary so I think you are right that the first William is probably the right one.
Thanks again
Pam

Red,

There is only 2 births for Charles Gillies between 1850-1854 but none of them have John as a father and none are in the Hawick area.

Father - Angus Gillies
Mother - Ann Ruddach
Peterhead - Aberdeen

Charles Gillies - 3 June 1852
Father - William Gillies
Mother - Margaret McDonald
St Cuthbert's - Edinburgh

and going for later on than 1854 there is only 2 births between 1855 to 1857

Charles Gillies - 24 August 1855
Father - Charles Gillies
Mother - Elizabeth Gillies m/s Gardener
Clyde - Glasgow

Charles Stewart Gillies - 27 July 1857

Sorry theres nothing much on SP about him.

I've had a quick look on Ancestry and although I don't have a full membership anymore I can still see some details and there is a Charles Gillis born in 1852 in Kent, England married to an Annie Luckett. Although the information is not sourced. There is no parents on that either.
