Hi John
My tree goes back to Agnes Barr b.1778 in Lochinvar, Renfrew. You indicate that her parents were William BARR and Ann FAIRSERVICE....can you please confirm where this info came from - and also if you have anything earlier on William & Ann apart from their marriage 4 june 1774 (ie were Jean and James her siblings?)
regards
Bryan

Hi Bryan
Pam mentioned Agnes as being daughter of Willam & Anne. She was born 19/09/1790. my ancestor was her sister, Janet Barr born 10/07/1778. Williams mother & father were John Barr & janet Mc Cun. All data has been verified with Scottish Register via Scotlands People. Have electronic copies of cert., if the Agnes Barr is the same one. Do you have a death date for Agnes to try & verify.

All the best
John

Hi all,

Im new to this and am trying to find out more about my family tree, I know the basics through word of mouth and sites like this have confirmed my heritage. But I would really like to start to compile my family tree and Get to know the "story" of my family and where i came from!
Any help with this would be great.
I am a Barr and was born in Dublin, brought up in Kildare and now have settled in Co. Westmeath. My Father is Robert Barr son of Robert Barr.
Kind regards

Graeme Barr

Hi greame

If your family is from Dublin you may have some dificulty as a lot of the records were destroyed in 1922. General register office in Dublin may help. I f of a Scottish background try www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk. Good luck

Thanks for that.
I have been told we were Scottish, and came down from Northern Ireland. Now i see people claiming the same family tree with same names but from farms in Donegal? I will try this site and go from there.
Thanks for your help.
Graeme.
