East Lothian (Haddingtonshire) / Re: Joan ( Jackie ) Crookston of the Tranent Massacre

David
Thankyou for the previous links, which I'll read with interest.

My Janet Wood was born 1803, daughter of Archibald Wood and Janet Brown. (She had a son named Archibald Wood Archibald in 1832, to her second husband.)

I drove through Tranent in 2007 and saw the statue, but didn't know the connection at the time.

Regards
Jean

I have read through this Crookston thread and would like to ask about James Crookston who married Janet Wood 1822 Tranent. There were children Jemima 1826 and Jean / Jane 1824.
James died and Janet Wood married Andrew Archibald, which is where I fit in (also Coalminers).

Is that James Crookston related to the Crookston of the massacre?

Thanks.
Jean (from cold, wet, Sydney, Australia)
