Hi Folks.  I'm new to this site and just discovered the discussion re Christian McGlashan. My 5 X grandfather was Archibald MacGlashan married Christian White in Strachur 1760. Their son Duncan MacGlashan (born 1773 Stronchievich? Strachur) married Mary MacLean 1794.
Their children -
Archibald b.1795
Christian b.1797
Donald 1799
John b.1801
Dugald b.1803

Apart from my own line through Donald (1799) I haven't been able to get any more info on the family.  Is anyone else looking at these MacGlashans, Whites or MacLeans?

Hi Kaite

John Stevenson is my 5 times grandfather.  Our line comes through James born 1787.  I hope you manage to recieve this message as it would be great to be in touch with you.  The bible is amazing.

Just registered on Rootschat and found this post:  Helen Thornton and Peter Chisholm are my 3 X Great grandparents.  Peter Thornton and Bridget Connelly are completely new to me.  Thanks Murphyz.  Any other Thorntons or Chisholms out there?

Stone still standing but very worn – I will not try the inscription but have noted below words which were visible and hopefully they will mean something to some one.


THORNTON


Erected by James Thorton
To The Beloved Memory of his
Father Peter Thornton
Died 21st Nov 1848 aged [all worn away]
And
His Mother Bridget Connelly
Died 1st Feb 1838 [stone worn at last number could possibly be 1839] aged [all worn]
Their Daughter [all worn]

James Thornton mentioned.
Further down there is a mention of a daughter Helen Thonrton died July 1875 [?]
Her husband Peter Chisholm death also on stone.

Sorry it is so vague. Non compressed file available if anyone wishes it.
