England / Re: Hardy..an australian enigma
« on: Saturday 14 August 10 03:57 BST (UK)  »
Hi Everyone

I have some information on Richard Burcham Hardy.

I have a copy of his Baptism Record. It is clearly written that he was born on the 14 Dec 1817 to parents James and Mary Hardy. He was Baptized on the 5 Apr 1818 at St James Garlickhithe, City of London.

Hope this helps.

Andy, you are a star, many thanks for the offer - you might be sorry you did!

(By the way before I start, is it possible to purchase a copy? I would happily do my own look ups if I could get hold of one)

In the meantime anything you can find on any of the following would be much appreciated:

John Sutherland (or MacRory) married to Barbara McKenzie who had Roderick Sutherland, ch 09.09.1793 @ Durness. They also had John b.1787, Flora Forbes b.1792 and Rachel b.1785.

Also  George McKay and Jean Morrison who married I think 19.01.1790 @ Durness. think Jean was b. 04.02.1771 @ Durness and her father might have been George.
they had a daughter Mary McKay b. 15.11.1792 @ Durness.

There's lots more but those would be great to help me on my way.

Many thanks

Ellen.

Hi

I am trying to find out who Roderick Sutherland, ch 09.09.1793 @ Durness married.

I have seen 2 different wives: -

Mary MacKenzie born 1791/92, died 1861/71
or
Mary MacKay born 1792 Crospoll, Durness, Sutherland, Scotland, died 1867 Sangomore, Durness, Sutherland, Scotland.
I have a picture of the Tombstone from Balnakiel Cemetery.....In memory of Rory Sutherland who died at Saingo 24th March 1864 aged 72 years. Also his Wife Mary Mackay who died 18th March 1867 aged 75 years. Erected by their Son Angus.

Angus Christening: 2 Dec 1834, Durness, Sutherland, Scotland.

Children of Roderick (Rory) Sutherland and Mary MacKay:

Kenneth Sutherland, John Sutherland, Boyce Mackenzie Sutherland, Jean or Jane Sutherland and Agnus Sutherland.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Australia / Re: Malcolm NICHOLSON/Mary Ann HARDING arrived Australia on Lord William Bentinck

Hi PrueM

Nice to meet you. Thanks for the welcome and the fast reply.

Yes, I knew about most of the info on the IGI. The only part that I did not know was the difference..... Harding/Hardie.

Sadly, I will not be able to use the Scotland's People website.

P.S.  Forgot to say "Welcome to Rootschat"!!  And good to see you are researching McKays...I'm a McKay myself

That's good news  :) Let me know if you think there might be some connection..... My mother told me that the spelling of the name Mackay had changed through time, and that they were descendants from Vikings.

Cheers

Australia / Malcolm NICHOLSON/Mary Ann HARDING arrived Australia on Lord William Bentinck
« on: Wednesday 21 October 09 03:53 BST (UK)  »
Hi All

I am trying to trace my Great Great Grandfather and Great Great Grandmother's patents.

Great Great Grandfather: Malcolm Nicholson, Great Great Grandmother: Mary Ann Harding. Arrived on the ship Lord William Bentinck, departed London on the 15 June 1837 (the Captain - Captain Doutty), arrived Port Jackson, New South Wales, Australia on the 8 October 1837 with 3 children. I have the record for them arriving in the New South Wales, Australia, Unassisted Immigrant Passenger Lists, 1826-1922.

Malcolm was born abt 1806, Isle of Skye, Scotland, died 3 November 1866, in Taree, New South Wales, Australia.

Married: 28 March 1829, in Glasgow, Scotland

Mary Ann was born abt 1806, Scotland, died 1 Aug 1875, in Manning River, New South Wales, Australia.

The are both buried at Dawson River (Taree) General Cemetery, New South Wales, Australia.

Appreciate any help in finding out who the parents are.

Cheers
Suz
