Lanarkshire / Re: Laing, Dougall
« on: Saturday 07 December 24 00:41 GMT (UK)  »
Digging in with ChatGPT it's leading me down another path of

father: Alexander Laing
mother: Margaret Dougald

but states wife is Margaret Dougald which I came up with wife of Jessie (Janet) Thomson

I'm trying to trace LAING back as far as I can in this line. 

After Robert & Elizabeth Mitchell I have Alexander Laing b.1714 & Agnes Young then John Laing b.1692 & Isobell Winchester which I'm stuck.

A) Is my research correct Robert Laing > Alexander Laing > John Laing
B) Do you have any ancestors research past John Laing b. 1692?

Haven't been able to get in black & white that Archibald was the father by documents but pretty sure it's accurate considering the naming conventions as listed previously.  I think Archibald b 1801 probably died in a coal mining accident.

I think I'm on the right track now

Dugald/Dougall Laing
     father:  Archibald Laing b 1801
     mother:  Agnes Baird b 1802

From there I'm not sure but I have

Dugald > Archibald > James b 1777 > Archibald b 1755 > Robert b 1735 > Alexander b 1714

Any confirmation or help would be great.

I just reread your reply post and noticed you said that Isabella moved to Liverpool.  Christina Meiklejohn married Job Cox who is from Kingswinford, England.
