Ev,

My email to you with Eleanor's email has just bounced.  It has been a long time since I have been on this site hence the delay in picking up Bonnelle's correspondence.

I would be obliged if you and bonnelle would kindly email me on *.  (I have broken up my email as some outfits do not accept them.)

Regards.  Alan

Hi Ev,

I guess you must be Evelyn then?  So you will have my email.  if so, perhaps we can pursue direct that way? 

I have the parents of Christian McLaren but assume that James Eadie died in a cholera epidemic circa 1832.

Regards.

Alan

Hi Ev,

Just come across this.  Christina Eadie born 14 April 1826 in Old Monkland is in my tree.  Her parents James Eadie (Coal Miner) and Christian McLaren who married in February 1816 in Aberfoyle, Perthshire are my direct ancestors.  I have part of the diary you have quoted courtesy of Eleanor S.  It sounds like I am the Eadie contact in England mentioned in your posting to Monica and that Eleanor is the lady in America? 

If you have any more information on James Eadie and Christian McLaren I would love to hear from you direct.  Eleanor will give you my email address.

Hi Patvp,

Thanks for your details.  Yes I am still wildly thrashing the haystack and getting nowhere.  There seem to be even more McLarens around than there are Eadies'.

Regards.

Hi Valr,

Not for James -  I suspect that he may have died in the Glasgow cholera epidemic in 1832

Yes for Christian.  In the 1841 census when she had remarried to a George McLuckie and had two of her Eadie children with her.  I also have her death certificate for 23rd August 1863 when she died a pauper in Shettleston.

Hi Patvp,

My first posting.  I note that you are interested in McLarens in Callander.  I have a Christian McLaren born in Callander about 1787 she was the ninth child of David McLaren and Janet MacNab who were married on 17th July 1768.  The other children of David and Janet that I have were Archibald b1769; Patrick b1770; Robert b1773; Catherine b1775; Elisabeth b1777; James b1779; Jean b1782; and another Archibald b1783.   My interest in this Christian McLaren (and I appreciate that there were other Christian McLarens born about this time in Callander) is that she married James Eadie at Aberfoyle in Feb 1816.
