Post by: Char44 on Monday 23 September 19 17:42 BST (UK)

Hello , Can someone please help me out ? I have been looking for information about my 5th great grandfather John Douglas / Douglass born 18 Nov 1772 in Penpont , Dumfries , baptism 25 Nov 1772 in Tynron , Dumfries parents are Robert Douglass and Elizabeth Clark ( they married 25 June 1754 in Laight , Dumfries ) . John Douglas married Janet McMurdo daughter of Gavin McMurdo and Agnes Gillespie . I am unable to fine much on John but the baptism record and only Robert and Elizabeth Clark marriage record , would like to know more about John and more regarding Robert and Elizabeth parents
Best Regards
