Wigtownshire / Re: Plan of Wigtownshire Churchyards Including register of names 1800 - 1950

I would love it if you could look for any Stafford MIs in Stoneykirk especially from 1750 to 1850. It may just provide a missing piece for the jigsaw that's currently eluding me!

Wigtownshire / Re: Cemetery Records - Stoneykirk/Kirkmaiden

Hello fellow searchers.

I am looking for any Stafford MIs in Stoneykirk.  In particular a John Stafford born round 1760 something and married to a Jean George.  But to be honest any Stafford info may help me piece stuff together. So if any kind person has time to look up or pay visit I'd be so grateful.

Northumberland / Re: David Horne & Margaret Young Kirknewton 1811????

Hi (Aussie 47 in particular).
John Young and Elizabeth Currie are also my GGG Grandparents. I'm descended from their son William Currie Young.
John Young was the son of Andrew Young (b.12 May 1764. Wooler) and Mary Clarke (mar. Kirknewton 02 May 1790).
Andrews parents were John Young (b. around 1738 Kirknewton) and Ann Michel (Mitchell b. around 1838. Kirknewton).  They were married 08 June1759. Wooler. 
I have some information on John his siblings and his children.  My line were almost all shepherds until my G Grandfather, Williams son Robert left to join his older brother John on IOM. My mum remembers as a child (around 1940) visiting one of her relatives at a farm in the borders - possibly James Young, another of John's sons who lived at Greenlaw, Duns for many years. She recalls a kitchen full of food and large men who were all related.
I've not been able to get back further than John and Ann. I keep hoping I'll find some link with the gypsy Youngs at Kirk Yetholm which was a nearby village.  I do know my GG Grandfather was resident there for a while.
