CAROLINE DAVIES Hi Caroline I found Agnes' christening but no mother listed. I did find 7 siblings for her all born in Dornock, Dumfires, but again no mother listed. Also tried to find a marriage between John and mum but nothing came up. Also found 3 possible marriages for her siblings. There were lots of other marriages in that area, later and earlier that could be your relations too. All I could find for Agnes and William was their marriage, also found their son who I've included in case you didn't have his info. Did find another Blinkinship in the same area who might be a brother of William. Let me know what you think and if you'd like the other Weild marriages in that area, just in case. Dawn :-) JAMES WEILD, b 28 Jun 1789 MARION WEILD, b 3 Jul 1791 JANNET WEILD, b 7 Apr 1793 JEAN WEILD, ch 28 Apr 1795 (possible twin for Agnes ????) MARGARET WEILD, b 25 Dec 1799 ESTHER WEILD, ch 24 Oct 1804 JOHN WEILD, ch 8 Nov 1807 ? JAMES WEILD married ELIZABETH CLERK, 18 Nov 1810, Annan, Dumfires ? JENET WEILD married JOHN THOMSON, 25 Nov 1810, Annan, Dumfries ? MARGARET WEILD married ROBERT CLARK, 30 Mar 1821, Annan, Dumfires JAMES BLENKINSOP, b 18 Apr 1819, Annan, Dumfries, Father WILLIAM BLENKINSOP, Mother AGNES JANE WEILD ? JOHN BLENKINSHIP married JENET LAWSON, 3 Jun 1816, Annan, Dumfires

JENNIFER OVEREND Hi Jennifer Can I just check the info you gave me for the look up because it doesn't make sense to me? Could be that it's Sunday morning!!!! You said that David was born in Apr 1845 and that Catherine was born around 1847 and that married in 1836!!! That means that they were married before they were born!!! Or is it just me and I've read it wrong. Please let me know then I'll get straight on with your search. Thanks Dawn :-)

TRUDI GUAGLIARDO Hi Trudi The only marriage that I could find that might be a possible for Andrew and Margaret is this one, not sure if it's them or not. MARGARET RAMSAY married ANDREW GARDYNE, 3 Jun 1809, Saint Vigeans, Angus I used this marriage to search for children and came up with Peter who you already have and one other children. Andrew is listed as GARDINER on both children's info. ANDREW GARDINER, b 16 Aug 1822, Errol, Perth, Father ANDREW GARDINER, Mother MARGARET RAMSAY ANDREW GARDINER, ch 9 Aug 1822, Inchture, Perth, Father ANDREW GARDINER, Mother MARGARET RAMSAY I don't know it these two Andrew's are the same child and the dates have been listed wrong or that they are two different children but with both parent's names being the same and it's the same area!!!!! Sorry if I've only added to your searching more rather than reduced it. Hope you can make sense of it soon. Dawn :-)

LOUISE ON THE MERIDIAN lINE Hi Louise Sorry I couldn't find anything for William or either of his brother's.

Thanks, Donald Thanks Dawn,unfortunatly no very little about Mary MacKilop only that she died possiby just after Flora was born c1877,any information you have on what might be her or any of my Mackechnie relations would be helpful as the only info ive found is that: Grandfather-Donald MacKechnie b c 1897 d c1948 and is buried in Nunton cemetary,Benbecula,i know he was not from the Western isles,married my Gran Marion MacPherson in 1925,have been unable to find no info on him at all.

I would be interested in if possible a lookup of marriage for James BEATTIE,dob 1843 +- born in Kirkbean,Kirkcudbright to William Beattie & Janet Agnes Callander.I have found his siblings but cannot find anything on him.There is a person listed in the 1851 census as Jane,(son of William)but this is impossible for the family,believe that this is a clerical & should be James. Thanks in Advance Ted

SHEILA SWANSON Hi Shelia This was a bit of a tough one!!! I first tried to find the children Jane and Robert. Nothing for Jane and this was the only one I could find for Robert. ROBERT MCKENZIE, ch 26 May 1850 Gorbals, Lanark, Father ROBERT MCKENZIE, Mother JANE LOGAN Then I tried to find any possible marriage for Robert and Jane and cam up with these 3 possiblies. ROBERT MCKENZIE married JANE LANG 22 Apr 1844, East Parish, Greenock, Renfrew ROBERT MCKENZIE married JANE NICOLSON DIPPIE 30 Jun 1843, St Cuthberts, Edinburgh ROBERT MCKENZIE married JANE LOGAN 6 Nov 1847, Mearns, Renfrew The I tried to find Robert's birth/christening and came back with loads of possiblies. Maybe you could see if someone here could do a look up on the 1851 census in Scotland for you to see if they could find this family, that might provide you with a bit more info, then I could try again to find them for you or figure out which ones are yours. Dawn :-)

DONALD MACKECHNIE Hi Donald Sorry I couldn't find him on my records either. Tried to track down his marriage and his children just in case my records went later in that area but still nothing. Do you have an idea when Mary was born as I think I might have found a possible for her? I know not what you asked for but thought it might be helpful. Dawn :-)
