Corrie family *COMPLETED*

[farmertom]

Greetings everyone,

I'm new here as a result of searching for information my mom seeks about her grandfather Robert Corrie, and I think this may be it.  I posted information on one of Dunscore's post.  My mom is the daughter of Mita Milne Corrie who is the daughter of Robert Corrie.  Mom was really happy and sad hearing of this site and topic about her grandfather and the Corrie family around the world.  We live in the Mariana Islands.  We would like to hear from Dunscore and the information he seeks.  Thanks and take care.

Greetings to you too farmertom from OZ,
Can you tell me a bit more about the Robert Corrie you seek,as much history briefly that you might know. And where abouts is Mariana Islands?

[farmertom]

Hi Sala,

Thanks for responding.  Well, my mom seeks information on her grandfather Robert Corrie, father to her mother Mita and sister to the names Dunscore listed; Charlotte, Sarah, etc., which my mom is aware of.  She said she has not met any of her mom's sisters/brothers and their children.  She said her mom told her that one or several of her sisters and/or brothers went to australia for schooling while her mom stayed behind in the Gilberts.  The Robert Corrie that went to the Gilbert Islands and disappeared at sea.  One of my brothers and uncle already met the Corrie family in Fiji.  I need to write down the detailed information my mom is providing me so that I can post those information.

The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands is a U.S. territory in the north pacific.  We live on the island of Rota about 50 miles north of Guam (another U.S. territory).  Thanks again Sala, I appreciate your response.

thanks farmertom,
It's good to know all this info. Keep me posted how you go but also what was your Robert Corries nationality because mine was scottish?

Hello all...I would like to introduce myself. My name is Nadia and I was just searching my great grandmothers last name and found this site. I believe I have found the right Corrie's. Her fathers name was Robert Corrie and her mothers name was Lydia Milne from the Islands of Kiribati (Gilbert).  I would love to get to know all those who are related and I hope I get some replies soon. Thank you.

Hi Nadia, I have a question to ask if you don't mind. Since your gt.grandmother's father was Robert Corrie and mother Lydia Milne of the Gilbert Isles., identical to my granny's (Mita) parents, my mom asks what's your gt.grandmother's name?  Thanks.

thanks farmertom,

I am unable to confirm the nationality issue.  I've heard Scottish, Irish but then a Kiribati history doc indicate British.  I would think that the eldest of the elders of Robert Corrie's descendants have the answer to that question, assuming there was not more than one Robert Corrie sailing around Kiribati.
