Suffolk / Re: William JAMIESON born 1746 in Suffolk
« on: Thursday 28 November 13 09:34 GMT (UK)  »
HI greensleeves,

The information that he was born in Suffolk comes from many other family trees on Ancestry.com... I am now rethinking this information.

Thanks for the heads up about the Norfolk/ Suffolk details.

Cheers, AdeBec

HI Keziah2

Oh well, have to assume now he was not born in Suffolk! Will check into some of the other options...
Thanks for your help!
Cheers, Adebec

HI jammy40,

I have already done that, but sadly it is a burial register not a death certificate, so there is next to nothing on it! But thanks for the advice...

Cheers, AdeBec

Perthshire / Re: Isabella McIntyre Blairgowrie 1842

HI there,

I wanted to thank both Thoth and Ambly for all of their assistance with interpreting information concerning my great great grandmother Isabella McIntyre (married to David Glennie in 1861 in Forgandenny), however not all of the issues have been cleared up! :(

The fact that on the marriage certificate my 3x great grandmother is described as being Margaret McIntyre MS Winton would suggest that they were married, but I can find no records to indicate that they were married.

 I have found a Margaret Winton being born in Forgandenny in 1808. I also found a census record for a Margaret Winton in 1841, she was working as a farm servant in the household of a Peter Lumsden M? who was a farmer at Bankhead (?). Any suggestions for the surname?

Is it possible that this woman is the Margaret Winton on Isabella's marriage certificate? Is it likely that Isabella was illegitimate and that the way she recorded her parents as married is only for respectability purposes???

Also, how can the identities of the witnesses to the McIntyre/ Glennie marriage help?

Any ideas would be wonderful as I am frustrated as to where to go on this one (which means a lot to me!)  ???

Regards, Adebec

PS. Also, the Blairgowrie reference is to the fact that Isabella always stated that she was from Blairgowrie!

Armed Forces / 12th Regiment of Foot - searching for information about Cpl William Jamieson
« on: Monday 09 January 12 05:59 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there,

I am trying to identify a place of birth and names of parents for my 5x Great grandfather William Jamieson. He enlisted in the "12th Regiment of Foot" during the 1780s and served in Guernsey where he married Ann Weise or Wise. He got into some trouble there and was sent to the Savoy Prison where he was enlisted in the NSW Corps. He was sent to NSW in the Third Fleet in 1791 with his wife and new son.

Records found by others have him born in Suffolk in 1746 but this does not tally with birth and baptism records.

I was wondering if somebody could direct me to some online military records, or even marriage records for Guernsey that may contain some other more detailed information about parentage, location of birth etc.

Any other advice would be welcome too.  :)

Kind regards, Adebec

Hi there,

Thanks for the help! I am not sure where to go on this one. The names aren't really reflected in the children's names at all - one Elizabeth...

I wonder if you can help direct me to military records. Maybe if I can see enlistment details...???

Suffolk / William JAMIESON born 1746 in Suffolk

Hi there,

I am seeking information about an ancestor William Jamieson, who according to my research was said to be born in Suffolk in 1746. He died in Sydney in 1802 being a member of the 72nd Regiment, also known as the NSW Rum Corps.

Regards, Adebec

Hi Throth and Ambly,

Thank you both for promptly replying to my call for help! To your questions -

1) regarding the census - It is on Page 8 and the number is 35. the property before this seems to be called Luban (?) a family called Campbell live there.


2) on the marriage certificate, none of the parents are described as deceased. Her mother is described as Margaret McIntyre MS Winton. The address listed is Forgandenny. The witnesses names can't be read on the certificate but I have attached it for your reference.

Thank you both very much in advance.

Perthshire / Isabella McIntyre Blairgowrie 1842
« on: Saturday 08 October 11 02:55 BST (UK)  »
Hi there,

I am researching my great great grandmother's family history and I have hit a block. I know that she was married in the Parish of Forgandenny, Perthshire in 1861 to David Glennie, and that she and her new family migrated to Australia in 1861. I have her marriage records which show her parents as being Peter McIntyre and Margaret Winton. Peter is described as being a farm servant of Forgandenny. The 1861 census record shows she was a servant in the McGregor Household in Fortingall "Tomchovan"? Can anyone help me go further that this?

Regards, Adebec
