Hi,

Nice to see your post - it was flagged up by my email account.

I know of your dad as he is my dads Uncle Norman! Normans brother, Thomas, was my grandad.  I know your grandparents lived and worked in the Hopetoun Estate so I contacted them to see if they had any info but unfortunately their archives department couldn't find anything.  We have managed to trace back quite far on the family tree now and I am now trying to flesh out the people.

I will have a wee look at my tree tomorrow and get back to you about any gaps.

Julie

I guess that makes you my First Cousin Once Removed!

Hi,

I am very new to the family research but think i have found out a fair amount.  After Alexander Laird I progress through the tree via James Laird, Charles Laird, James Laird, Charles Laird, Charles Laird until Euphemia Hay Brown Laird who was my great Grandmother.

Hi,

I know this message was first posted a few years ago, but I have recently started family research and i was looking for relevant threads on here.  I am a direct descendant from Robert Laird and Margaret Cowan and Alexander Laird and Agnes Mcluckie (5th and 6th Great Grandfather).

If you have found out anything else in the last 5 years or want to exchange research please get in touch!

Hi,

Yes Effie and Alexander were married in 1900.  They had about 6 children I think, 5 boys and one girl, another Alexander being the eldest born in 1901.  I remember the Charles you mention and he was my grandfathers brother. Thomas was born in Linlithgow on Jun 08 1904.  Thomas' youngest son is my father.

Definately family then! :)

Hi again,

On the 1881 census Alexander Lothian and Jane Heugh had a son, also Alexander who was 3 at this time.  He in turn had a son named Thomas in 1904 who was my grandfather.

The first Alexander was one of at least 4 siblings and his parents were Mark Lothian from Tranent (abt 1813) and Alison Mitchell from Kirkliston.  This has caused me some bother as they have been mispelt on various census records as Louden and Laethian.

I am still looking into Janes side - I only really started this a ew months ago off an on but have made some inroads recently!

Is this any help??

Hi,

I know that this message is a couple of years old, but if you are still interested I think that this Alexander Lothian is my G-G-G-Grandfather.  I have just started researching the family tree and any info/help would be great.
