Dunn

[mosquitodz592]

My ancestor came from Coldstream and I have now hit a wall with my ggggrandfather Andrew Dunn and his wife Elizabeth Dunn nee Wood.
Andrew was a millwright who married in 1790 at Coldstream. They had ten children, eight boys and two daughters  born between 1792 and 1812.

Has anyone got a trace on the Dunns in or around this area to give me a direction or location to follow Andrew's birth place or more importantly his father, please?

Thanks
Richard Dunn

My ancestor Mary (Ann?) Dunn (born abt 1816) married James Brown (born abt 1816, dead by 1851?). They had an irregular marriage at Coldstream in August, 1833 and then married in Dunbar on 1st September, 1833.

I have no information on Mary before that date but have a line from them to the present day.
