HI

Not exactly looking for these but have quite alot of info on the Louries of Girthon, Gatehouse of Fleet as my Great, Great Great Grandad was William Laurie (Girthon Born 1817) who was married to a Margret stanhope.

I guess there might be a link somewhere

Regards Rob Laurie

LAURIE Margaret, daughter of William Laurie, 4, born Girthon Kbt
LAURIE William, head of household, MINER, 40, born Girthon Kbt
LAURIE William, son of William Laurie, 7, born Girthon Kbt

LAURIE David, son of William Laurie, 2, born Girthon Kbt
LAURIE Grace, daughter of William Laurie, 1,  born Girthon Kbt
LAURIE John, son of William Laurie, 9, born Dalry Ayrshire
LAURIE Margaret, wife of William Laurie , 30,  born Kirkcudbright K

Address: 3 Swan Street, Village of Gatehouse(866) Parish: Girthon

Hi Monica I am very intersted in these Lauries and was wondering if you could tell me the year that this information is relevant too.

The Laurie Family of Gatehouse of Fleet (Scotland) and Barrow in Furness (UK)

Hi Rob

Welcome to RootsChat 

That census entry you refer to came from the 1851 census.

Hi ALL
Can I jump in and say I am also looking for Lauries. In my case it is Alexander Laurie. He is known to have married Martha Clingan, on 7 Mar 1828 at Crossmichael. She was born Knockwalloch, KPD. A daughter was born probably in Crosmichael on 3 Dec 1828. Daughter died 18 mths later Old Greenlaw, Berwick. Martha also died at that place so am presuming family moved there at some early stage of the marriage. Hope this info is of use to someone - as well as me :-)

Hello, I'm new here today.  I am a descendant of John Laurie, married Jessie Mckinnell), son of William (Robert's brother?) and Margaret at No 3 Swan street as mentioned on page three of this subject.... do you know if they have their own thread (subject) here?. I am aiming to follow the male line as far back as I can initially and then the female one.
