Hi there, I am one of the descendents of the Huggan line through George Huggan (1824) and Jemima Rae (1827) who were my GGG Grandparents. Happy to share any information

GEORGE HUGGAN was born c1824 in Jedburgh Rox.Scot.Need his birth date!!
He married Jemima Rae in 1846 in Hawick,Rox.Scot..I think that she might have been born either in Wilton or Hawick c 1827.
They had 8 known children born between 1848 and 1869.The last child was Andrew SWAN Huggan.born 1869 in Hawick.
I believe that his "SWAN" name was either his father's mothers maiden name or his mothers mothers maiden name.
Does anyone have a clue on this?Are you researching this family?
One boy,George Huggan born 1855 married Elizabeth Richardson in 1879.
In 1855 this family lived at 37 Back Row,Hawick.
I would very much like to contact further descendent's of this family.

Hi there, I just joined rootschat  & read your posting about 1871 listing for Huggans. I searched on ancestry and came up with a slightly different listing for the entry:
George aged 47
jemima aged 44
Catherine aged 18
George  aged 15
James aged 13
Isabella  aged 10
Peter aged 9
Andrew Gray aged 2
living at Green Terrace Hawick
Do you have a copy of the original and do you think this has just been wrongly transcribed?

Also found them in the 1871 census

George aged 47
jemima aged 44
Catherine aged 18
George  aged 15
James aged 13
Jemima aged 10
John aged 7
Andrew Swan aged 2

and also found the following:-

Jemima Huggan nee Rae died September 9th 1894 aged 66 the daughter of John Rae Wool Spinner and Margaret Rae nee Cunning.
Cause of death was Chronic Bronchitis for one month.

Death was registered by Andrew Swan Huggan son


best wishes

Jemima born 1860 married George McArthur 31st dec 1887,
Andrew Swan Huggan born 1869 married Elizabeth Middlemass 8th Oct 1896.

from the family of James Huggan and Elizabeth Richardson married 1878 I can add;
dau Harriet Miller Huggan married James Riddell 15th dec 1899,Hawick,
son George Huggan married Mary Tearney 27th Jan 1905,

Hi, thank you for your replies, you have given me information I didn't have regarding the siblings of George Huggan (1855). George and Jemima were my great great grandparents. My maiden name was Huggan, but my Father moved south in his 20's. I have traced the tree as far back as William Huggan & Elizabeth Turnbull (both born c1739). Nicky

Chr Apr 5 1785 in Jedburgh who married Katherine Swan
