Fife / Re: "Laings" in Fife and beyond

Hi all Laings!!
Please excuse any mistakes that I make as I just discovered this site last night and had to hunt around for my family history stuff.
Anyway my great great grandfather was a Robert Laing, who was born approx 1840 in Carnbee, Fife. His parents were James Laing and Isabella butter who were married in 1833, 29 June in Carnbee. Robert Laing and his father moved to Dundee in around the 1860's . Robert Laing married Jane Ann Doctor in 1868.
I do have more information, but just thought that I'd post the bones of it, as it may help someone with their research. I can't claim to finding out any of this myself - my Aunt gave me some Laing family research that had been undertaken in the late 1980s. However I have verified and added to it, through Scotlands peoples website.
I look forward to any responses
