Hey, appreciate this is an old thread but Daniel Christie and Helen 4th great grandparents and their daughter Agnes Christie and her husband Archibald McDonald are my 3rd great grandparents. I am actively researching my mothers descendants through her mothers side.
Archibald and Agnes had a daughter Helen, born 16/1/1872 in Dalmellington, Ayrshire - she was my Great great grandmother. She had a half brother, James born 4th November 1862 in Dalmellington, Ayrshire - his mother Isabella died when he was 1 year old. Infuriatingly I can trace him to Dalmellington living with his parents in 1901 but the trail has gone cold for me. As I appear to have some fam on here - do any of you know what happened to him?
