Hello again Tickle

I dont have this information in stone but two Douglas sisters supposedly married Fleming cousins in the 1770 - 1800.

As for a direct line to Thomas and Elspeth Fleming I dont have that either but am trying to see if there is a connection.

My 3x great grandfather, Alexander Fleming, was born at Craggenfearn in1799 and was a stone mason in and around Atholl, (he is buried about 5 mins from my house); his father John Fleming was born abt 1769 in Craggenfearn and he married Janet Ross. The father of John was (my Laird) sometime around 1730-1745 at Atholl, Perth.

Thomas Fleming's unnamed eldest son fits the timeline for birth of John's father.  So there is the reason for my inquiry of the Fleming/Cameron family.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Cambron!!!

The Camerons held the rental of Craggenfearn abt 1707. 
Thomas Fleming b. Feb 28, 1704 m. Elspeth Cameron b. 1709.  Their children were:
Male b. Feb 1, 1736 Blair Athol
Janet b. Mar 13, 1740 "     "
Elspeth b. Oct 27, 1745  "  "
Donald b. June 13, 1747  "   ""
Robert b. Apr. 9, 1750  "  "
John b. June 25, 1752  "  "
Christian b. Sept 26, 1755  "  "

I am still looking for the 'Laird" Fleming and was wondering if Thomas and Elspeth's eldest son may be him?  Does this family fall into your line.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi Jean

I have ANN OGILVY b. Feb 11, 1770, Perth, Scotland married  to JOHN FERRIER b. Nov 17, 1759.  They were married in Dundee, Angus on Apr 12, 1790.

KIds : John, Ann, Jean, Mary and James.

I would suspect your people and mine may be related but for now I have no connection.  I will let you know if I find anything.

Happy searching,

Hi Carol!!

Believe me I know there are alot of Scarr's out there...lol.
Just figuring where to start is the problem.  Ok, here's the way I'll do it:

JENKIN SCARR born abt. 1581 Burtersett (Askrigg)... this line I have a pretty good handle on his eldest son John Jenkin Scarr line, although more info on his sons Richard, George and Matthew would be nice...or his parents/siblings.

JOHN SKARR died 1634 Burtersett, N. York.  John married Ann Lofte.  That's as far as I've got there but I'm told they had a large family.

JOHN SKARE died 1710 in Sawston, Cambridgeshire.  From what I understand his great grandson or grandson Peter Scarr b. abt. 1830, Great Shelford,  married Harriet Pouter and they immigrated to Australia in 1855.  I have some info on Peter and his family.

I am told all these people are related and I'm trying to put the puzzle together.  It's a very large puzzle....lol....so any help would be appreciated.

Take care, Ontchick
