I saw census records for East Lothian for the years you mention at the Church for Latter day Saints Family History Centre at Colinton Road in Edinburgh. Could possibly check something for you in future?

There is one on line for Dirleton 1861 so there must be others.

Hi Mo,i am trying to find the marriage record for Thomas Darrie to Janet Kirkcaldy,i know it must have been East Lothian Area as all their children were born there,George was their first child and he was born around 1810.I cant find a burial record for either of them so i have no idea who their parents were.Anne.

Anne,thankyou so much for looking for me.This could be my family as my George was born about 1816 in Coldingham so it could be him,if it is that means you have given me Thomas parents,so thankyou very much,at least noe i have something to go on.Anne.

If any of the above are likely candidates, let me know as there are more details for each individual than I've posted here but I don't want to take up screeds - just yet. I can also do a Parent Search - this brings up all children born to the same set of parents which don't always appear when you search for individual births.

Good Luck!

Anne
