New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Catherine Angus married William Longman COMPLETED
« on: Sunday 26 December 10 20:41 GMT (UK)  »
William longman Angus was born in the Orkney Isles 20th January 1859.  His middle name - Longman - seems to be related to his Aunt's husband, as there are no other Longmans in our family.  A William Longman married William Angus's Aunt Rebecca Allan at Hobart Australia in 1853. The had no children. William Angus sailed  to NZ on 28th November 1859, leaving Plymouth on the Opawa.  he married Catherine Curran ( from Ballyhaise, Co Cavan) in Oamaru 31st July 1883.  They live at papakaio (peebles) all their lives.  If i can help with anything else please do ask.

Hi there,

I have just noticed several comments re the Angus family and, as I am a descendant of William Longman Angus, born at Eday, Orkney Isles 28th Nov 1859, I thought I'd drop you a line. He had a brother called  David Angus - born before or after that date ( I need to find the details i have stored somewhere). He had 4 brothers and 2 sisters. There has always been a David Angus in each generation moving forward from the mid 1850s.  I am just about to starting going backwards. again, and I do have all those DOB to start working on  so if there might be anything helpful/we are in the same ball-park let me know.  I think the place is important. I am fairly certain that  this Angus family were all from the same place.
