Hi

Thanks for your offer.

I would love it if you can find any information on the following in KILMARNOCK

Robert Service CAMPBELL
He was born about 1816
married to a Margaret HOWIE in September 1841.

I don't have any other details than that, so anything extra you can add would be fantastic.

Loudon-
Michael Cochrane born 1775 in Stobieside , Avondale, Lanark.  Died in 1850/51 in Loudon, Ayrshire.  My Cochranes lived in Darvel (and still do!0
Wife- Agnes Mair Cochrane. I belive she died by 1829 as Michael had remarried by then.  Agnes was born in 1778 in Loudon.

Alexander Cochrane.  Born about  1751 and Died Sept 1804 in Darvel, Loudon, Ayrshire.  His wife was Mary Smith Cochrane and she died in 1818 in Darvel, Loudon, Ayrshire.

I am assuming Darvel but it could be another village in Loudon if the dates you find match up!
