Hi Ostler,

It's been a while since I checked into rootschat - I've just come across you March entry.

I have searched SP many times & other than a marriage entry for Peter Laing & Elizabeth Forbes (parents James Forbes & Ann 'Fraser'??) I can find no Birth or Death entries for her.   Also no Death for son James although I have his Birth.

Agnes Mathieson - I have no marriage to Peter Laing or her Birth (mothers m.s. on death looks more like 'Carr'??)

Can you tell me if you have extracts for these & if so where I can find them?   Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

Hi lor57,

Yes, this is the same line of Laings, your David Laing B.1780 is the brother of my John Laing B.1778 who married an Anne Black.

I had your David Laing - Married to Anne Small with children John, Thomas, David, Elizabeth & Isabell, but didn't have George B.1818, - so I 'Thank You' for that, & have since found him & a second John B.1821.

I am happy to swap info with you, or give more details of the above & fill in any blanks, it all helps.

Hi
Just read your info on David Milne Gardner, I have an IGI entry for him Born 19 Jul 1868, Dundee. His parents listed as Alexander Gibson Gardner and Agnes Doig Milne, other children Margaret Love Gardner b. 13 Mar 1870, Kate McPherson Gardner b. 26 Feb 1872 and Alexander Gibson Gardner b. 28 Feb 1874.  Hope this helps.

Hi,
Did you mean to send this to me? I don't seem to have any Robert Laing around this area at this stage of my searching.

Hello Sheenie,

Does that make us distant, distant cousins?
 
I will also let you know if I find out anything more.  I did find a John Laing married a Mrs John Laing (very helpful ;D) but I guess thats what keeps it interesting.

Hi Sheenie,

I think I need to do a bit more searching re John Laing & Ann Mcewing - I found IGI marriage for John Laing & Ann Laing but when I went into SP I did a John Laing with an Ann only and a large year span from 1705 to 1742 and found only the 1 record as above, nothing for an Ann Laing and just assumed that was her maiden name.  I know you shouldn't assume anything so I will keep trying and look into your Laying and Mackie idea.

You mentioned your John Laing b. 1740 has been witnessed by David & John Laing, I have the same but my copy for Janet b. 1744 the witnesses look like John & Charles ...something, but it doesn't look like Laing to me?? Is your copy any clearer?

Thanks for the input.

Regards
Mythical
