     My apologies, I missed typed the date. The correct Thomson/Lawon marriagae date is 1865 June 9. My information is from the 1865 Marriages of Auchterderran, as displayed on Scotlandspeople.gov.uk pg 6. Daughter Cathrin is my great grandmother. Other children are Agnes, Margret, Jane, John, Phannie, Alexander and Anna. Only Agnes and Cathrin were born in Scotland. Cathrin in Lochgelly but not sure about Agnes. All these children died in the USA
      Agnes Lawson Thomson's mother, was Agnes Smith m: Alexander Lawson 1835 March 27.
      I do not know if any other of the Lawson or Thomson would have been in Locghelly. That is my interest in cemetery names.
      I am trying to prove Agnes Smith Lawson parents as John Smith and Jean Gray.
      William Thomson was born in Ratho and died in USA. His Father is John Thomson but do not have any other information. His mother is Catherine Hogg b: abt 1820 Leith N. Midlothian.
      Thanks for your reply. I apologize again for my mistake.

Hi Julia

Daughter Agnes looks to have also been born in Scotland, likely first born on 23 February 1866 in Auchterderran, Fife, then Catherine later on 20 SEP 1867 Auchterderran. No other children show as born in Scotland, so guessing the family left for Canada at some point after Catherine's birth - census info would help you confirm this as would any shipping details.

Hi Monica, Thank you, I did not have Agnes's exact birth date and place. The family came to the usa prior to 1869 but after Sept. 1867. I posted more information today.
