hi Forfarian  my father John Myron on his birth certificate only shows Ellen Bain as his mother, no named father ,my mother informed me that Ellen Bain was his mother and a farmer named Morris Myron was his father I assumed that William Tennant was his older brother and Janet Bain his sister I believe there was other siblings it was a very fecund family thats for sure..

Thanks forfarian ,it gets a bit confusing about cousins ,the whole saga about the Bain family was a complete surprise to me, I had no ,or very little , knowledge about my Fathers family ,all I knew was that he had an brother and a sister nothing about Ellen and her children born out of wedlock , oh well thats life who are we to judge ,thanks again...

When Jane 'Jeanie' Wallace Bain was born on December 18, 1893, her mother, Ellen, was 21. She had one daughter in 1915. She died on November 11, 1964, at the age of 70.

Hi again Mrmac , found this   When Gladys Davidson Bain was born on April 26, 1915, her mother, Jane, was 21. She married William Henry McSteen in 1943 in Croydon, Surrey, England. They had two children during their marriage. She died on July 23, 1996, in Croydon, Surrey, England, at the age of 81. it appears that Ellen Bain was your great grandmother  ,William Tennant was your great uncle ,John Myron (Bain ) my father, was your great uncle and Janet Bain your grandmother  , we are second  cousins and Kirsty would be third cousin.

Hi mrmac  ,regarding your query about William Tennant Bain ,well it is my daughter Kirsty Edwards who has done extensive research on the Bain family originally from Dufftown Scotland ,William Tennent Bain was my fathers half brother ,same mother ,Ellen Bain ,different fathers,it appears all Ellens children were illegitimate , apparently common at that time and place ,so he ,William , was an WW2 hero he received an DSC medal for his actions in Burma , he settled in Dover , married a Lily Ward ,my grandmother Ellen lived with then and passed away 1963 in Dover  , Kirsty was trying to discover William and Lillies children to add to the tree , if you can look at it is amazing ,believe me,Kirsty at the moment is in Glasgow ,however she has  dual citizenship UK /NZ as she was born in NZ. Hope that helps Kirsty knows a lot more about the Bain family than me .....
