Midlothian / Re:Robert Baillie
« on: Tuesday 14 October 08 09:33 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Thanks for looking. What was the actual entry for George Baillie, I know all about him,  having worked closely with Mellerstain House.  Was there an actual address given ?
Robert Baillie was his father and was cruelly executed being framed as a participant in the Rye House Plot intended to kill Charles II. Robert's seat was Jerviswood in Lanarkshire, a tower restored recently.

I'm tracing the Lawson family in Temple, does anyone have the graveyard records for Temple or any leads that might help me particularly 18th century. Names: John Lawson married to Isabella Ketchen at Temple in 1829; David Lawson (b. around 1758) married to Elizabeth Selkirk.

Hi, yes if you can, I'm looking for Robert Baillie of Jerviswood, he was the son of a merchant and I am interested to know where he lived and what his profession is.

sorry nothing reported in the local papers, Stow was in Midlothian then so you may find something noted in the Scotsman

Hi I'm seeking Lawsons from Temple. The names I have are John Lawson born 1807 Temple married Isabella Ketchen from Eddleston 29th May 1829, would be interested in any details concerning them or indeed other Lawsons in that area. John's Father was possibly David Lawson b.10th June 1782 at Temple and was possibly the son of Alexander Lawson born around 1758 and Elizabeth Selkirk. can you help ? Thanks Bob Lawson

Hello

Will look this up, I did a complete study of Stow some years ago and have every article printed in the local papers, there should be something there.
