MI's for Kirkmaiden, Stoneykirk and Kirkmadrine

[mccubbin]

Hello Beannie,
Thank You for the MI for the McCubbin's.
William McCubbin and Ann Chalmers
are not related to me, so thank you anyway.
I will look into the other names.
My McKibbon/McCubbin must of not been able to afford a gravestone when they died.
Well Beannie
Thank you for your help.
PS I know I have McCubbin buried in Glasserton and Whithorn, the early McCubbin's came from Kirkmaiden and Stoneykirk.
Thank You
Karen

Hi Beannie,

Happy New Year to you!

I would like if I may, revisit a look-up you kindly did for me back in August '08. My request comes on the back of subsequent research.

You found a MI at Stoneykirk "Erected by Andrew KELLY in memory of Martha WILSON his Grandmother who died at Dalvaddie 5th Feb 1881 aged 73 years." Was there any further inscription about Andrew himself?

I am sure you would have mentioned it if there had been, but I thought I would just check. I am trying to work out if he was Martha's son Andrew (who moved away from the area) or a grandson.

Also is there any record of Janet LOUGHRIE who died in 1858 and according to her death registration was buried at Stoneykirk? I have found several variations of the surname spelling, including LOUGHERY and LOCHARY which appeared on her Death registration

Kind Regards, M.

Hi M,
Happy New year to you too!
I'm sorry there are no other MI's regarding Andrew Kelly or Janet Lochary, I've tried all variations of the name Lochery

Hi Beannie,

Many thanks for checking that Kelly MI.

I'm sorry I had a "senior moment" with the other name!

I meant to say Janet or Jean MANN; her maiden name was Loughrie. So could you check that name please. There were several Manns at Stoneykirk in the mid 1800s so there could be could be others.

Thank you, M.

Hi M,
I'm sorry there are no Mann's in any of the books I have.

Hello Macharskin

I am always interested when the name Mann pops up. This is, unfortunately, of no help to you but you may find it curious!

My grandmother's birth certificate states Helen or Ellen Mann Williamson (illegitimate) born 1883 to Jane Williamson (domestic servant) of Back Ramparts, Stranraer. The family lived in Stoneykirk before the 1881 census. We shall never know the reason for this middle name I am sure.

Thought provoking though, isn't it?

Hello Judy,

As you can see from my recent posts, the Mann family are my current big project!

I have 28 folks by that name from the area (connected to my ancestor Agnes), and the list is growing. I live in hopes that one of them will guide me to the area in Londonderry my ancestor lived between 1838 and 1850 and pre 1800.

I may stumble upon a connection with your grandmother along the way.
Regards, M.
