Hi Fiona

Am only able to view transcription but this looks like the family (even with the odd spelling):

1901 - No.32 (all that's given), Newton, Midlothian

George Burnside    Head   Mar.  32   Ploughman   b. Garvaes, Haddingtonshire
Elizabeth    "          Wife     Mar.  31                       b. Cranston, Edinburghshire
William        "          Son    9                                    b. Liberton,        "

Hi Fiona,

There are some names here that look like possibles for my lot, but I don't have any info as yet to tie them in.

I have a Helen Burnside born about 1816 in Stenton Haddington, m Alexander Litster 24 May 1840 at Noth berwick & died sometime before 1898.

I have loads of rellies to this lot in the Haddington, Cranston, Garvald area, and the names George, Elizabeth, margaret, Andrew & Isabella crop up down the generations.

It could just be coincidence, but worth asking.  The surnames that crop up via marriage ( Helen had 3 daughters, Margaret, Isabella & Ann) are Bridges, Thomson & Adams.

Any Matches?

Cheers

Hi GalaLass

unfortunately I can find no connection between our Burnsides.I have searched my Burnside info that has gathered over the years to see if there was any info that may be useful to you.so here goes


Helen Burnsides parents as
Alexander Burnside & Isabella Bell m 1815 Edinburgh
Alexander died 1859 Dirleton
Isabella died 1872 N Berwick

their children via SP
1.Helen b1816 Stenton      died 1898 N Berwick
2.John   b1817     "
3.Henry b1819     "
4.Peter  b1820    "
children via freecen 1841
5.Thomas babt 1831
6.Isabella babt 1831
7.Jane babt 1836
child via freecen 1851
8.Margaret babt 1830

possible parents for Alexander Burnside b1794 Haddington
as Andrew Burnside & Margaret Johnston, althought not 100% this is correct as I have not viewed Alexanders death record for parents names.
Andrew & Margarets children

1.Alexander b1794
2.Elizabeth  b1787
3.Isabel       b1790
4.James       b1803
5.Janet        b1788
6.John         b1801
7.Margaret  b1796

Isabella Burnside nee Bells parents as John Bell & blank for mothers maiden name on Isabellas death record.possible parents as John Bell & Helen Bruce m 1775 Dunbar with Isobel b1791 Lauder,Berwick

hope this helps.
Fiona

That's very generous of you Fiona, thank you.

There is certainly plenty there to check out & a lot of new children to track down.

Shame there's no cross over, but i guess the names were popular with a lot of families around that time.

I will pick these up probably next time I'm at the Records Office in Edinburgh and look for all the death & marriage certs first.

Much appreciated.

Karen

Hi Fiona,

Yes that would be great, thank you.

There's no rush as I will have very little time on this until the winter months.

I will pm my e-mail

Thank you
