Hi beans
Would this be Euphemia Hynd born 16th February 1817 in Dalgety?
Do you have anything at all on this family? (just to prevent duplication of effort)

hi kristy all i have for her she is the daughter of james hynd and elizabeth muir. i
have had some problems with euphemia hynds in my file i have 2 different ones
connected to the same husband one i was able to eliminate as a kind sole on
roots chat sent me the death cert and she died in scotland. now the one i am
still looking for immigrated to the usa. there is another thread on that topic but i
am not sure how far back it is. yes she was born feb 16th 1817

I will have a dig and see if I can't link to the other thread.
She didn't marry a Beveridge did she?

hi kristy
yes she supposedly married a james beveridge which is where the original
confusion came into it. the one set of james beveridge and euphemia hynd
lived and died in scotland however someone sent me beveridges and had
them listed as immigrating to the usa. the death cert i was sent is proof that
they had the wrong james and euphemia and since famillies repeated names
it is extremely difficult to trace and here in the us you need to be a relative to
request a complete copy of birth marriage and death records. i sent a request
over a year ago for james naturalization records and have never gotten a
response beansgram

yes kristy thats the right thread as you can see there was some exstensive help
done on the original problem verifying and eliminating people

Does that mean that the Marriage in Dumfermline 1844 is of the family that stayed in Scotland?
-
kristy the second thread in your above post has the children from both sets of
james and euphemias mixed together i have since then been able to sort the
children to right set of parents buti am still not sure about the immigrated james
wife being euphemia hynd his american relis are positive but have nothing to
verify it. to the moderator sorry if i am over lapping threads was not sure since
this is a different james and euphemia yes the 1844 marriage is the couple who
remained in scotland. and the ones that immigrated had 2 of their children in
scotland alexander in 1846 and james in 1849/50 then they are on the census for
1860 in mccandless twnshp not to far from where i am beansgram

I'm glad I managed to work that much out correctly. My head is spinning from rereading those old threads, I got lost somewhere around the Penmans I think. I don't think anyone will object to a new thread on this - since it does turn out to be a different family!
It might be a good idea to lay out clearly what you have now verified as being "your" James and Euphemia's family, maybe starting with the 1920 death and working backwards through census records and then it will be easier to see where there are gaps that might be filled in.

Looking at the IGI I can see a submitted entry for Alexander in Aberdour March 1846, and another for James, in Dumfermline October 1847. In both cases parents James Beveridge and Euphemia Hynd.
There is an extracted birth entry 10th October 1847 Dumfermline for James. Is he yours?
The Alexander born 1857 Dalgety I presume will belong to the Other James and Euphemia.
There is no extracted record showing on the IGI for Your Alexander. Did you get his birth details from SP or are you relying on the submitted entry?
Have you viewed the census records for 1851 on SP? There are 7 hits for James Beveridge with second person Euphemia. I am aware that some Fife census records are not in the records so your family might not be there.

hi kristy
my james and his euphemia are on the 1851 census with their two sons who
were born in scotland alexander born march 16-1846 and james born in 1850.
they are on the us census for 1860. with their daughter agnes who was born
in the us. i guess it is possible that this james is married to a euphemia hynd
as i have a few in my file born in the right time frame. i have been unable to
find where they are buried or i would just go to the cemeteryand see if it is in
the records . once again i am stuck on this couple. i am trying to find out if it
really is euphemia hynd daughter of james hynd and elizabeth muir but i dont
know where else to look. alexanders birth date came from his american relis.
