Her granddaughter - Margaret CAIRNIE/MACKIE dob 1846. Her granddaughter Mary MILLIGAN/MACKIE  dob 1848 all of Kirkmaiden, wigtownshire

Any help would be much appreciated

Hi sazzyannie,
The only McKie that I can see for an MI for Kirkmaiden is; David McKie  (born c.1820 -1905) married to Janet McCulloch, is this your David?
I had a look at the 1851 census and found Margaret W57, David 29, Agnes 26 and another daughter Janet Stevenson, also Mary and Margaret.
What other info do you have as there are a number of mcKie's.
Kind Regards
beannie

Hello all! I just recently found out married names of my great grandfather's sisters,Elizabeth Marshbank and Sarah Mangle. Parents were William and Mary McClinton. I know that William and Mary are buried there( Thanks to Beannie!) ..I am trying to find out if there is a listing for Elizabeth and Sarah? They were both in Drummore(?) in 1931 according to death records i found for their father and Sarah's husband James Mangle. Any help with these names greatly appreciated as always...Thanks so much,Jodi

[fionnghal]

hi Jodi, I'm interested in your McClinton name.  We've got Ayrshire/Wigtownshire McLinden, Mc A Linden, McAlyndon, McLinten, MacKlandin, Linden &c &c...every conceivable spelling under the sun, moon & stars.

I actually have two completely different McLinden families, both originating in Ireland but the above multi-spelt west coast ones originate, pre 1800, in Ireland, then settled, initially, in Ayrshire whereas my east coast ones, drifting towards the McLindon spelling, appear on the Scottish scene mid 1800's and originate from Rathfrithland in Ireland.

My earliest is westcoast one is Michael and had an unknown possible brother / nephew.  BMD's are proving difficult to trace for this and the next generation.  We've had to depend, where possible, on post 1855 death lines to track down many members.  It's been a long process so i always prick up my ears when i spot a McLinden type name in that part of the world 

Most of the Ayrshire family were in weaving but some boys went to sea or joined the army and saw the world sometimes falling off the planet in the process.. 

I have some Williams who fell off the planet and i've no idea what happened to them. Have you any idea of where and when your William was born?

Maybe when you have time, you could come back to me

cheers for now

Hi Fionnghal! My McClinton family came from Ireland as well..(most records show County Down). Williams parents were Robert McClinton and Mary Cairns, Roberts parents were Henry McClinton and Sarah Paterson(Patterson)..William married Mary Jane Gribbin. All named except for Henry and Sarah have a stone in Kirkmaiden Cemetery,along with a daughter Robina McGaw and other children with the McClinton name. My previous post listed Sarah Mangle as Williams daughter when i actually believe she was his sister(no proof yet).. I do not have any info on Henry and Sarah(my brick walls ) ..possibly stayed in Ireland. If you happen to run into these names,PLEASE pass them along...Best wishes and Happy Hunting from Kentucky,Jodi
