Re Lawrence's REEKIE grandparents Michael & Margaret.

Margaret was probably Margaret REID.

A couple of births in the IGI, one of which matches with Elspeth REEKIE, 28 in the 1851.

Magdalane REEKIE, parents Michael REEKIE & Margaret REID, bap May 1820, Falkland Fife
Elspeth REEKIE, parents Michall REEKIE & Margaret REID, bap 12 Jan 1823, Falkland Fife

And the marriage:
Michael REIKIE & Margaret REID, 1 Dec 1810, Falkland
Sorry, CaroleW, you already posted that.

JAP
PS: Submitted records in the IGI have Margaret's parents as John REID & Magdalene GALLOWAY.
