*** Unproven   *****

This James we have no birth records for, but I feel sure that James and Margaret McInnis would have had a son called James. Another researcher has the son of Dewar and Christian Cooper ( below) attached to Euphemia . for this reason we are trying to find which James is which.

Midlothian / Re: Galloway - South Leith
« on: Sunday 02 August 15 04:06 BST (UK)  »
Thank you for your reply Monica.  We have quite a lot on this family however here's the problem. We have two James' both wrights, married in Crossgates. one in 1831 to Euphemia McInnis and the other in 1832 to Isabella Duncan.
Now Euphemia and husband went to Canada around 1847 and Isa and her James were in Edinburgh by 1851.   One of these Jameses is most likely the son of Dewar and Christian, ]but which one?  I have my own idea but need some documented proof.  I hoped that I could find the Leith James' death cert to prove his parents.  How could I find out where Isa is buried ?  I will be in Scotland from the 17th of this month and hope to follow up on some burials.
          best  regards Margaret

Midlothian / Galloway - South Leith
« on: Saturday 01 August 15 11:45 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the death of James Galloway Husband of Isabella Duncan to confirm his parents. James was born in Dunfermline . The 1861 and 71 census finds him in south Leith age  58 then 69.
Isabella died in 1872 in south leith, wife of James, so I assume he was still around.
another researcher states that his son married in October 1879 and James was not marked deceased although his mother was.
I can find no death certificate for him. I have downloaded 8 possibles , all wrong.
I assume Isabella was buried in South Leith.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Would anyone have any information on  Agnes Fram/e and James Brown. They married in 1805.
James was of Carluke parish and Agnes of Lesmahagow parish. I have their OPR record.

I also have a death record for Agnes, Muirskyehead, (farm)  Carluke 1843.

They also lived at Wellrigs nearby where daughter Agnes Broun was born in 1823

I would like to find the parents of James and Agnes. Cheers Margaret.

http://www.btinternet.com/~james.fanning/thefront/page47.html

click on  ‘The Fallen’  this shows the memorial in West Calder.

on panel 3 is  J Reid.  KOSB.

run the curser over the name and you will find a report from the Midlothian Advertiser  14th July 1916.

I found my father's uncle W Y Grandison there and a notice from his parents in the Advertiser.

Wow again.  I am having a hard time catching up with all this marvellous information.
How about that shared grave, wonder what happened to William Clarke. and who WAS John Sutherland?? 
But I am thrilled to have found Agnes. It would be lovely if there were Australian children.
Thank you all for your input it is much appreciated. Miska

Hi , Judith

I have been looking at the death of Edward Fleetwood and found the Agnes Fleetwood married to William Clarke in 1880 .

I did find a death for Agnes Clark ( no e) in Leichhart with no parents.
but can’t see a William,  with or without an e, in Leichhart.

Agnes gave her age as 31 in 1858 making her birth 1827
I don’t have a birth record for her but other facts point to her being a fair bit older that she stated. Perhaps age may be a factor in there being no record of Fleetwood children so far.

I am trawling through the very interesting Trove site that Ros put me on to. Thank you so much for your kind reply. cheers Miska

PS Will look at death notice. thanks
