ArgyllGran Report 31 Jul 2015 11:15

It's probably not possible to tell if the Patrick who married Elizabeth Martine is "yours" or not.

You would have to have a look at the image of the marriage record, in tha hope that his father's name was mentioned - but often isn't in OPR's. (And presumably isn't in this record, or it would have shown in the transcription Malyon found.)

You can view the original on ScotlandsPeople:

20/03/1701 MCDOWALL PATRICK
ELIZABETH MARTINE
/FR1344 (FR1344) M EDINBURGH EDINBURGH CITY CITY/MIDLOTHIAN 685/01 0450 0093

There's no sign of a marriage to Kath Ferguson (or other spelling) in Scotland.

Thank you all for the replies

I am still confused


I will copy this off to read at a later date

Probably seems confusing Joyce, as you have a relating 'Thread' with info. on.

Think you need to read through it, and perhaps review your 'Tree', as to how you are linking back.

(as with your other McDowell 'Threads' which come up on google search, they all seem confusing, quite a few!)

Thank You Chris Ho/ Salc/Malyon

I see I did post before sorry

But you have confirmed what I wanted to know even though the names have changed slightly you have been a great help

What sites can I trace back with my mcdowell mcdowall line

Chris Ho :)

Chris Ho :) Report 30 Sep 2016 12:16

But where did you get that Marriage date of 1695 Edinburgh from Joyce, as it can't seem to be found?...

Chris :)

(I have given links to websites I used, not sure for Malyon though, perhaps would be useful to have it!)

(and I have helped before with Devon Burials McDowall (and it's variants!) from Find My Past website, as given on them)

A family relative in A.U gave me Patricks Marriage to Kathrine Ferguson 1696 Edingburgh is this the marriage you are talking about

Chris Ho :) Report 30 Sep 2016 21:34

I was taking the 1695 from info. given below, so 1696, wonder where it was found from, think perhaps best to leave it, as getting more confusing, lol. Not seeming to come up for Edinburgh for folks that have previously looked...
