St. Pancras Marriage 1803/Birth 1804/5

[Old Moon]

Hi Ian,

Jean Macritchie married James (Shade/Shed/Sheed) 25th Nov 1794 Dunkeld, Perthshire. 

They had George b 16th Sep 1795 Dundee Angus (c 2nd Oct 1795). 

Then they seemed to move to London.

James was buried 29th Jan 1806 in Southwark, Surrey.
 
Jean remarried 1st Jan 1809 Thomas Ogilvie a widower.

I have recently found another son born to James and Jean; James, c 13th May 1798, Southwark, Surrey.  James seems to have died, Mar 1835 37 yrs, after marrying Caroline Ann and having 6 children that I have found, all c at St Andrews Undershaft between 1824 and 1834.

George the older son, my husband's ancestor, m Sarah Floyd 20th Aug 1822, St Mary Whitechapel.  They had 9 children from 1823 to 1843.  They lived in Marylebone.  George died in 1873.

They were known as SHEED in London.  This is how the spelling was passed down. 

My problem is however, James (Shade/Shed/Sheed), that m Jean Macritchie in Dunkeld, is a bit of a mystery man.

He is not the James Sheed c 1770 in Calbrach Aberdeen as some think.  That James must have died because there was another James born to that family c 1778 who married someone else and had a family in Calbrach.

Thanks,

Gail.

Hi. Robert Robertson you refere to is my great great grandfather. He came to Australia vi America but stayed her and became a Jeweller in Melbourne. I believe his connection to the Constables is That Toberts father (also Robert Robertson) took over his buisiness when he retired.

Hi, Ive only just joined this site and excited to find that Genor8or was searching my 4x great grandfather - George McRitchie.  I'm following the line down to his daughter Margaret and her husband Robert Anderson. I will print this page out and follow this with interest!

Hi Sue

Welcome to Rootschat 

This is quite an old topic and Genor8or hasn't been online here since 2011 despite additions to the topic.

I can try sending him a personal message to let him know that you have posted and see what happens but if his email address has changed since then, he won't get any notifications.

However, the others who've also posted here might be interested in your reply.

Hi Gail,

It's great to see your posting about my ancestors.

My father (who passed away many years ago) was a Sheed and is a descendant of the James Sheed (Shade/Shed) from Dunkeld who you mention.

I  traced my family tree on my father's side a good few years ago and was able to build a great picture of the whole family, especially the Sheeds who were living in London (having moved down from Scotland).

Please feel free to message me on here and I would be happy to share my findings with you.

All the best,

Laura
