Perthshire / Re: Missing STEWART family – Redgorton c1850’s
« on: Wednesday 17 June 20 11:47 BST (UK) »
Hi Norman, I must be related to you. James Stewart and Catherine Taylor are my 4 x great grandparents. I am descended from their daughter Elspeth Stewart who married Angus McIntosh and their son James McIntosh who was borin in Perth in 1865 but moved to Thornaby, North Yorkshire, England and married his wife from Dowlais, South Wales. He died in Thornaby in 1920 and I still live around that area.
On Ancestry, I have found the census records for James Stewart and Catherine nee Taylor for 1841, 1851 and 1861. For Catherine on her own I have found her on the 1871 census as a widow. All of them say that Catherine was born in Fowlis Wester, Perthshire. How did you find her birth in Moneydie?
I have just found this thread today and I'm so pleased. I've been trying to research my family tree for over 20 years and I have always hit a dead end with my Scottish ancestors.
