Fife / Re: Ancestry of Wardlaw family of Dunfermline area
« on: Monday 13 January 25 14:15 GMT (UK)  »
I'm doing a family tree for my friends husband and can't find any ancestors or birth or marriage records  for John Wardlaw and Marion Hutson who had 2 children both born in Dunfermline, John born 1741 and James born 1744.  If anyone has info I would be very grateful

Hi Diddy,
MMM  The early years I have are slightly different but the fact you have a Reed Carter which is unusual points to the same family.

You posted :
my line forwards from John 1713 - Thomas Carter 1751 - John Carter 1776- Reed carter 1805 - Ann Carter

My Line is :
JOHN CARTER CoxGreen 1715 - THOMAS CARTER Coxgreen 1754 - JOHN CARTER Coxgreen 1776 - THOMAS CARTER Coxgreen 1797 (mother Ann Taylor 1st wife of John Carter, your ancestor is Reed Carter, mother Catherine Reed 2nd wife of John Carter) - THOMAS  CARTER Coxgreen 1818 - JOHN CARTER Durham 1841  - JANE CARTER 1865 (my great Grandmother)

Not exactly sure how that makes us related.  Are you in Ancestry?

Hi Diddy,
I have Carter ancestors from there too.  In fact if your ancestor was John Carter (1776-1851) my 5th Great Grandfather, parents Thomas Carter and Isabel Wilkin then we are related, Yea! I am on ancestry and have managed to get back to Thomas Carter's (1754-1821) parents who are John Carter(1715-1765) and his wife Mary Weyman(1720-?)

Hi Jean,
Janet's maiden name was Thornton.

The previous generation was also in Whitburn so do you have a William Bryce born abt  1738 or his wife Helen Bryce(maiden name Brown or Broom).
In fact this particular Bryce family seem to be in Whitburn from abt 1738 right up to 1873, so any Bryce death during this time may be connected to the family

Best regards
Elaine

Hi Jane,
If the offer is still open I wonder if you could check and see if you have either a Robert Bryce or a Janet Bryce.  They were married in 1782 in Whitburn and had 5 children, 4 of which were also born in Whitburn, so I am assuming that they lived all their life there and hope they are also buired there.  I really don't know when they died but their youngest child was born in 1803.
Many Thanks
Elaine
