her mother Elizabeth Laing, address was Fore Street or Plough Inn Johnshaven
her granny Ann Officer married to David Laing 1866 Johnshaven
her gt granny Elizabeth Ogilvie married to David Laing not sure of date
her gt gt granny Christian Lees married to David Laing June 1822
her gt gt gt granny Helen Carchary married to Alexander Laing no date
her gt gt gt gt granny Margaret Cowie married to William Laing 1751
William was born 1729 his father I think was a John Laing of Benholm but no record of mother.
some record of weavers and some fishing folk.
this does this seem to be long winded. I was thinking of comming down to see the Benholm Kirk I don't know if I can look at any records there.
hope you can help

I'm not totally sure what this enquirer is looking for. I have access to to an idex to the 1901 census for Johnshaven which identifies the Census pages any family is located on. See below
You have to go to Scotlandspeople and pay to view/download theses pages if you want further details.
