look up offer - crawfordjohn death records

[poppysmum]

Sorry no Herdens, the closest is Barbara Heron age 2yr 6mo, daughter of Thomas Harkness and Margaret Heron.

There are a couple of John Watsons but none old enough to be the one you are looking for.

John watson, died 2 Aug 1853 age 15, son of james watson and elizabeth Laurie, killed by the upsetting of a cart.

John Watson, son of John Watson and Christian milligan, died 11 jul 1853 age 16

John Watson, husband of Elizabeth Laurie, died 17 mar 1840, age 29

Is there any more you want me to look for, some of the Watsons have stories that go with them!

Hi Caroline,
                 Thanks again for your help ,it would be
                 interesting to read the "stories"that go
                 with the Watsons, that you have found.

I have a book of crawfordjohn death records if anyone would like me to look anyone up.
They only go up to 1854.
Let me know
Caroline

Hello Caroline,
I have just discovered quite a few of my husband's ancestors are from Crawfordjohn. Thank you for the offer to look up death records there.
I am particularly intrested in Alexander SLOAN & Katherine SLOAN nee WILLIAMSON. I cannot find them on the 1841 census, and on one of their son's Thomas, death certificate it stated there were deceased, but I cannot find a death certificate for either of them. It is also possible Alexander's parents John SLOAN & Isobel SLOAN nee GRAHAM may have died there.
Another family if I am not asking to much John BARCLAY, I believe he died in 1849, and is buried with his wife Janet, I have her death certificate she died 16 May 1871.
The last family (so far) is the parents of Janet BARCLAY nee McGEORGE. from her death certificate they are listed as Walter McGEORGE & Helen McGEORGE  nee McLELLAN, both deceased in 1871. I have been unable to locate them on the 1841 census.
Hope I have not asked to much of you.
Many thanks for any assistance.

Hi Judith

No it'snot too many names, i like looking them up.  The more the merrier!

I'm afraid there are no Sloans at all and there is no sign of katherine Williamson.

The only Barclay is
Elisabeth Barclay, Wife of James Watson, died 18 Aug 1835 aged 68.  She was interred in Lamington churchyard. 
Maybe she could be  a relation?

How do you know John Barclay died in 1849? Maybe there is a clue to where he might be buried.

There are no McGeorges or Mclellans either I'm afraid.

Are there any other names you would like me to look for?
