Would your William FLEMING be the son of William 1807 and Jean 1815 born Kylsyth Stirlingshire in 1854? William Snr is a BARGEMAN.

No sorry, the William I am looking for was born in larbert Presbyterian background according to his marrage and death certificate he was born some time in 1855 to William Fleming and Annie McLean, I am aware that at the time he had moved out to Australia he was already a skilled saddler so i'm not sure if there are any records in scotland hidden somewhere about apprentices around that time period. He had 6 sons and the name William Fleming has been present within 5 generations that are known. However the first born of his sons was named Robert William Fleming Robert after his wife Isabella's 10 year old brother who died two years before the birth of their first son who also died aged 10.

Hi Sarra, just wondering if you have had any further luck I've beens stuck for the past 6 months at the same place your previous posts have included (William is my 2x GG on my fathers line). Clearly William did not swim from Scotland and I have noticed that Isabella's family lived a short distance from Larbert so I'm wondering if somehow there was a family connection previous or if this was just a coincidence? Just trying to follow all leads at the moment. Unfortunately there is no grave marking at Melbourne Cemetry where they are both burried however I am determined not to give up. I went as far as contacting the local Presbretarian churches in the area yet none had any information on him. i have added a few pieces of information you may be interested in regarding more about William's time in Australia and his 6 boys.

Trying to track down the same info just wondering if anyone who has read this is having any luck? I have unsuccesfully tried to track down JillyRay as we are related however never met. I am a decendant of William Fleming and have JilllyRay in my family history tree.

I'm guessing that's possible. I do have his marriage certificate here in Australia that states his parents are William Fleming and Annie McLean but I'm guessing that doesn't mean they were married?

Hello, just wondering if anyone had any luck William Fleming is my 2x Great Grandfather. I'm pretty much stuck at the same location as discussed in this thread and are not able to find any records in Scotland for William Fleming.
