And John yes I did mean to say James and Janet went to Canada- silly me, here I was wondering where Janet died, and speculating it might have been in Scotland or on the boat etc. but she and James had two more children born in Ontario, Canada, so she must have died in same place.

The missing child is Peter McLuckie born May 24, 1818 at Campsie, not at Kilsyth.

So your McLuckie's stayed in Scotland then- until when? when did they moved to England?

Thanks from Nora

And message to Pauline in New Zealand- don't ever give up, even in the past two years I have found new info that I never thought I would find ten years ago. Ancestry.com is posting more and more databases, more and more old books and records are appearing online too.

You are in New Zealand, correct? Did you have McLuckie ancestors then who went to New Zealand? Can you give us a few more details about your ancestors? Maybe we can find something for you if we know more about them.

Thanks from Nora

John I have nothing to prove that "my" James was Andrew's son, although I believe that he was, based on the location thing- he being at Kippen, while Pauline's James was at Kilsyth.

John (and his wife Janet Archibald) travelled with their children sometime between 1831 and 1836 to Canada. I expect they landed in Quebec and made their way to Ontario where they resided in Hastings County. James senior was alive for the 1851 census but I cannot find him in 1861 so suspect he died in 1851-1861 time frame.

I don't know where or when Janet died- it is possible she died in Scotland, on the boat, in Quebec, possibly in Ontario...she was not on the 1851 census and James senior was listed as a widower.

Will do some more digging this morning and see if I can find anything new.

Pauline I have names of seven children for your James and his wife Christian Graham, and their dates of birth- do you have all of that info already?

So nice to hear from you- do you know how to find my e address so we can write directly? Out of all their children then, only my son in law's grandmother is still alive, at age 94! Hope to hear more from you-   Nora in Alberta, Canada

The Common Room / Re: Paul FOUNTAIN.. who was he really??

Have just discovered these messages about a search for Paul Fountain. If you are talking specifically about the Paul Fountain who was married to Gertude Alice Abbott, please write to me as I am just getting started working on this family's genealogy. My son in law is a direct descendent. Would love to correspond with other descendents and work together.

Thanks from Nora

Delva, these are my McLean daughters' McLuckie ancestors as well.

William McLuckie born 1831 at Kippen, Stirlingshire married Philippa Ann Andrew in Ontario, Canada about 1855-1856.

His parents:

James McLuckie born 1781 and Janet Archibald born 1798

James' parents we believe were:

Andrew McLuckie & Jean Methven

James would have been a brother to your ancestor William.

Where did you find all the baptisms for children of Andrew by both wives? I did not have daughter Christian/Christine or son Robert for Andrew & Jean in my files.

Would love to correspond about these common ancestors (my daughters, not mine but important to me to work on).

Have you written to John Blair who also worked on these families?

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: St Peters parish HOYLE

GAP, when you refer to having rec'd some info from a contact in Canada, was that me you got it from?

The William Hoyle who married Barbara Redfearn was baptized on Aug. 22, 1742. I am not sure where but could find it.

Their son William Hoyle was born on July 11, 1773 in Yorkshire. He married a woman named Mary but I do not have her maiden name recorded.

This line is related to the Walker family of Bessacar, and I think you have also posted messages about Richard Walker and his wife Mary Freeman?
