Hi again Norrie

William Weir and Janet Laing had (I think) the following children:

Andrew Weir (b 1865 d 1955) m Tomania DOWIE
Thomas Weir (b 1868)
William Weir (you found)
Jessie Bonellie Weir (b 1874)
Isabella Black Weir (b 1877)
David Weir (b 1880)
Philip Weir (b 1882)
Alexander Weir (b 1886)
Tomasina Weir (b 1890)

Going back one generation, William Weir (b 1841)'s parents were:

Andrew Weir (b 1819 d 1892) and Isabella Black (b 1821 d1902)

William (1841) had a tribe of siblings (ie Andrew and Isabella's children):
Alexander (b 1843)
Andrew (b 1844)
David (b1847)
James (b 1848)
Andrew (b 1850)
James Masterton (b 1852)
David  (b 1854)
Isabella Stenhouse (b 1856)
Jane Black (b 1858)
John (b 1860)


There are a few earlier generations but I've already put down so many names, I feel it is too much in one hit!

regards

Ian A

don't know if this is the info u were looking for, but my Grandmother was Margaret Christina Lumsden Bell (died Feb/82)  married to James Bell.  My mother, Margaret, was born Aril 4, 1923 in Lankackshire Scotland.  Mom celebrated her first birthday on the boat coming over here to Ontario Canada.  Mom passed on Decmber 7, 2009.  You check this out on my site "Iva Lindsay Family Tree" at ancestry.ca    my direct email is * - if u send me yours I can "invite" you to my tree there.

Hi Doug sorry nothing on the Bells your looking for.
I can find some children of James Bell & Margaret Lumsden on IGI
who did the children Marry?
