Familys connecting to my Markie surname, which i have some info on
Stubbs- Northants, Staffs
Allen - Northants
Ashley- Northants
Brownsell - Northants, Bucks
Gibson- Northants
Whitehead- Northants, London, Berwickshire

So if you have come across the surname Markie or connecting names then i would love to hear from you.
I am now got back to James Markie who was married in 1760 but i am unable to find his birth which i think is outside the county, and maybe spelt as MARKIE / MARKE / MARKEE / MARKEY / MARKY.
Regards Ian Markie
