Francis BELL was born "somewhere" in Scotland and he married in Taunton in 1693.
Any thoughts as to where he may have been born circa 1640-1670?
He was buried in 1734 and there have been no records found that would indicate his age.

Hi Catherine,

I would be grateful if you could have a look for Grace McE LUSTY born c1853 Tollcross, LNK and James Murdoch LUSTY born c1850 Tollcross, LNK.  There is a possibility the surname may be MURDOCH as the mother was previously married to James Murdoch.

Thanks

Hi Catherine,

I am looking for the birth, death or marriage of John King(b old Monkland) age 46 in the 1871 census living in West Calder, with who I assume is wife Agnes Greens (who lacks his name). I have found one birth to them on the family search IGI (William Stevenson King)It does say they were married 1850 Glasgow.
 I am having problems finding the births of the other children:

Henry king b c1852 (Wishaw)
John      ''        1862 (Dunbarton)
Mary      "        1857 (Shotts)
Agnes    "        1859 (Ayr)
Margaret "      1866 (Dunbarton)

I can't seem to pinpoint these on Scotlands people so hope you can help.
         
          Cheers Ali

I have an Elizabeth Simpson - parents James Simpson & Elizabeth Wallace or Walls - christened in South Ronaldsay, Orkney in 1837.  IGI says she was born in 1823.  I think she was born in 1828 for reasons listed below. Can you find any record of the birth?

Liz Simpson eventually ended up in Edinburgh in 1852 coz her son was born there. She states on her marriage certificate 1856  that she was 28 years old which puts her birth around 1828, which matches her death certificate as well.
She died in 1908 aged 80.

I'm not even sure if she was actually born in Orkney or not, although her death certificate says she was.

And I cannot find any Simpson/Wallace marriage in Orkney either.  The only Simpson/Wallace marriage I can find in Scotland was in Berwick in 1787.


Thanks

Hi Catherine,
I would appreciate it if you could look for a Robert William McGoverne, born c1838, but I dont know which parish. The only clue I have is he had a son christened (according to LDS) 1873/4 High Church, Lanark, Glasgow.

Thanks Tracy.
