Ayrshire / Re: Roxburgh

There is a Robert Roxburgh (place & date unknown) married a Mary McWalter 1875 at Galston, he was a coal miner, 2 children Janet 1875 & Catherine 1878 both born Galston.
Janet went on to marry a Alexander D. Paul in Glasgow.

Any connection?

Robert Roxburgh b. 1850 Galston, parents Mathew Roxburgh b.1820 Galston and Janet Law b.Kirkoswald. Married 1849 Galston. Other children John 1846 & Mathew 1847.

Mathew was HLW 41-71 & 75 Grocer.

It appears Matthew and John were from Matthew b 1820 to Sophia Jackson d 1848. It seems possible that Robert who married Mary McWalter was Robert  b 1850.

Great yes they fit in and I have put them in. Where does it fit with your tree? Can I put some more of your tree in if it fits? Thanks heaps.
 If you are in the UK cheer for my team the Crusaders at Twickenham on Sunday.

Hi
I am descended from Roxburgh of Galston. My grandmother was Agnes Murdoch Roxburgh born Galston 18 April 1895. Her and her twin sister Susan Fullarton came to New Zealand in 1912 on their own age 17!!
Their father was James Gold Roxburgh mother Margaret Wilson Alexander siblings were James (killed WW1 1915) Hugh Alexander and Allan (died as a baby 1905). Their mother died in 1905 (possibly childbirth?)
Their grandparents were James Gold Roxburgh and Susan Fullarton. Susan was James second wife he was previously married to and also had children to Agnes Brown.
Any information you can supply will be gratefully. Interest in my Scottish ancestry again has been ignited by two of my children being in Scotland for the rugby test last week.
I hope to visit Scotland again as my last visit was in 1975!
