Inverness / Re: Kenneth McLean who ended up in Loftus Yorkshire
« on: Sunday 02 March 14 11:09 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Belem and welcome to the site! I cannot quite piece together from your post your exact line in the tree. We same to have the same Gig grandfather Kenneth and then the same gg grandfather George born 1829. I have quite a bit of info from that line. One of their children was William Kenneth 1852-1922 who married Margaret Green 1854-1923. One of their children was my grandfather John Burdon McLean 1887-1975 born in Stockton who married twice- first to Sabina Wills 1892-1917 and they had my aunt Sabina May McLean 1917-2002. From grandad second marriage to Lillian Scott 1889-1983 born in Scarborough- they had my mum Jean McLean born 1923 in Middlesbrough and still with us at 91.
I have quite lot of other details added to by mistermc who has been very helpful but I haven't fitted them all in yet! My e mail address is * if you want to ask questions direct.
We are off to see my Mum next week who still lives in Middlesbrough. In September we have a week in the area so am aiming to go to Loftus as we know there are records there and in the local cemetery.

To be honest I am not sure where I picked up the Scotland link for the first Kenneth as I haven't any actual information to say that is correct. I certainly cannot find anything about him prior to Loftus but he does not appear to be from there.
We live in Buckinghamshire but amazing to think my Mum is within 25 miles of Loftus and my grandparents were from Stockton and Scarborough. Until I started the family tree Mum didn't know anything about these links at all.

Thanks for the reply woodvillecaz. Yes the Kenneth born in 1792 was in Loftus and he married Ann Best. And later Johanna Jackson. From the first marriage one of the children was George born in 1829 who is my great great grandfather. George married Barbara Taylor and one of their children was William Kenneth in 1852 who married Margaret Green. One of their children was John Burdon McLean who was my grandad and he married twice. From his second marriage to Lilian Scott they had my Mum Jean in 1923. She married a Smith hence myself and my brother. I have done quite a bit of digging but could not get further back on the original Kenneth born 1752.
Are we from the same family somewhere along the line?
