Many thanks for all the information.  I have new details now, the parents of William Clements were John Clements and Isabella - this is from Find A Grave.   John clements may have been a jeweller in Liverpool. It would be very useful if anyone could help with finding other children (williams siblings) or
any information about John and Isabella.

Antrim married in 1858 to Bridget Braithwaite daughter of James Braithwaite and Bridget McCormick. The son John emigrated to New Zealand in about 1864.
any help much appreciated.

Hi, I am also researching an ARMOUR family which may have had connections to Robbie Burns wife.    Have found the family in the 1841 and 1851 census, living in Greenock, Renfrewshire.
Names are:  John Galbreath born 1809-1811 married Margaret ARMOUR b 1816-1817 in Paisley.  John was a joiner/journeyman.  In the 1841 census there is an Agnes ARMOUR b about 1791 mentioned, I wondered if she might be margarets mother or aunt?? I cannot find anything else about this family in scotland.  Margaret appears to have emigrated to New Zealand in 1874 to live with her son John and his family in Dunedin. Family legend says that there is a connection to Robbie burns..... research found that Jean Armour (Robbies wife) had an uncle she stayed with in Paisley.
John and Margaret Galbreath (nee Armour) had children with names Agnes, Janet, Lachlan, Margaret and John.  Margarets death cert says she was born in Paisley. she married John Galbreath in Greenock.
Any info much appreciated.

Hi would someone please be able to try and find this family, lived around walton on hill area. I have found some marriage and birth info so am after death/burial, census or any information you can find. Thank you.

Father: William (Harold?) Clements - an engraver
Mother:  Margaret Williams (or Gordon)
They were married 14/10/1816 at St Annes, Liverpool, so must have been born c1790's

Children: ambrosina b1819, william? b1821, Cornelius? (b1822) Charles b1826?, Harold b1827 (died in new zealand), margaret isabella (died in australia), clemintina b1829, camilla b1830, septimus b1831 (may have gone to america)

The impression I have is that the family were wealthy, I am descended from Harold and we were told he was a remittance man but I am not sure if this is correct.

Margaret married James Harper Kirkham they emigrated to australia
Harold married Maria Ryding Kirkham, also went to australia.  Harold may have been in merchant navy.

Australia / Re: BDM lookup please Melbourne, Victoria: Margaret CLEMENTS

Debra, I am blown away by what you have uncovered.  I have tried looking for Harold in trove but only found a couple of things.  I am in NZ and the family story is that Harold was a remittance man, the family didn't know he and grace met in Australia and had a daughter Margaret who died aged 1.

The fact he was already married when he met Grace might explain a lot - maybe he was looking for Maria so he could marry Grace..... you have given much to think about and some new leads.
thanks so much
Leah
