Dear Mr. Maclaren,
This may not be of much to you, but I found the reference for Katherine Jenkins's marriage to William Maxwell(Mackison) on the familysearch.org and have copied the webpage info below (I hope the formatting remains intact. If I may ask, why did you include "Mackison" as a potential surname. I ask because one of my ancestors, a William as well, changed his name from Maxwell to Mackison, as did another William Maxwell of a previous generation. Would you happen to have any insight on this curiosity?

Sincerely,

Steven Mackison

Dear Friends,
My name is Steven Mackison. I'm an Anglican priest living in Canada (I know...with a name like Mackison, I should be Church of Scotland...so it goes.)
In any event I am trying to research descendants of James Mackison of Kilmadock (born approx 1816). I have a fairly complete picture to date in that I've found a lot of material on ancestry.com and scotsorigins, and have latterly found much of what I need on scotlandspeople.gov.uk. The problem is, the records end in the 1930's. More particularly, I am looking for descendants of James Mackison (b. 15 Oct 1881) son of William Mackison (b. 25 Dec 1839) and Janet McGowan (b. 7 Jun 1843) - all of Ballingrew, Kilmadock.
James Mackison married Annie Murray Brown (b. 1891) on 25 Dec 1929 but I cannot discover if they had any children - James' death certificate of 18 March 1942 does not indicate so, but one never knows. Lastly I am trying to discover if James' other son Robert McGowan Mackison (b. 28 May 1883) at Norrieston, Kincardine Perth was married or had children.

My apologies for the long message, but I wanted to provide as much detail as possible. The real shame is, I only discovered this material yesterday, 1 week after returning from my honeymoon in Scotland...I could have done some research while I was in the area. However, my new wife, although now a Mackison herself, may not have been obliging...who would blame her.


Any help that you may be in this matter would be greatly appreciated.


Sincerely,

Steven
