Just seen some of the previous entries. This information may be of interest. 
William Brown Ritchie married Agnes Hill Simpson on 30 july 1909 at East Ingliston, Kinnettles, Forfarshire, Scotland.  East Ingliston will be the name of a local farm where William was a ploughman at the time.  William was 21 and Agnes was 19. 
Certificate from 'Scotland's People"

Hi  I believe William Brown Ritchie married Agnes SIMPSON.  She is a distant relative of mine.  I don't know when they went out to Australia but it was after they were married.  I know they had a son called Henry and lived in James Street

FYI  Simpson and Sampson are interchangeable in my family.  My father's second name was Simpson which should have been Sampson as that was his mother's maiden name - however my grandfather got it wrong on the certificate !
