Looking for anything about the Crockart family pre 1850.
In particular from my own line, the parents of Robert Crockart who married Christian Wilson around 1820. Their first son Robert was born in 1824 and they had further children, Andrew, William and Ann.
Appreciate any information

Hi
I hope you get this message as I noticed that it was posted a few years ago.
I'm currently doing the Crockart family tree (my Papa's line). I've managed to get back one further generation than Robert Crockart, but I'm still progressing through it.
The Crockart's that are in NZ are coming over for a visit in a few months so I'd like to go as far back as possible.
I have the information at home (I'm at work at the moment). I will provide you with what I've found so far. May I ask who you are? Are you from the Crockart line also?
Kind Regards
Karen
