Hi.  I have a marriage proclamation of Joseph Foord and Agnes Alison on 3 Apr 1785 (compeared before the congregation, on this place of public repentance and were rebuked for this sin of Antinuptual Fornication according to the rules of the Church).  Their first born John was born 10 Apr 1785 (7 days later), my relative James was born 24 Jan 1793 who married Margaret Whillons on 1 Jul 1821... I have an old photograph of James Ford who immigrated to Australia with my GGrandfather Joseph around 1885 or 6 to Isisford in Queensland.  Perhaps you are related to this James?  I would be interested to know a little of the Australian Fords.

Hi Alan
I have Foord/Fords who seem to match your comments below, although slightly different names/dates.

My GGGrandfather Joseph Ford married Agnes Alison on 3 Apr 1785 OPR Gordon, Berwickshire.
Josephs was born around 1758 but there the records stop.
His son James born 24 Jan 1793 married Margaret Wheelons or Whillons on 1 Jul 1821
Their son Joseph Ford born 13 Nov 1824 married Janet Lees on 21 Feb 1851
Their son Joseph Ford born 19 Apr 1864 is my great grandfather.

Joseph immigrated to Australia with brother James, before immigrating to New Zealand, while their other brother Aaron immigrated to Canada.  I have met descendants of Aaron Ford in the 70's when they visited our family here in New Zealand.

I am writing a wee book about the Ford Family 1758 on... and am interested in shipping records and any stories about life during the 1800's.

Cherie (nee Ford)
