This I think relates to families referred to in postings by Beppy & Hursty52 above.

My ancestor is Marion Graham (I think born c. 1815, Carnock). As far as I can establish, her parents were William Graham and Marjory Taylor. From reading this thread, I am guessing that Marion's sister was Janet (who married Andrew Robertson, per above).

To help confirm it is the same family, would anyone be able to advise if Janet had a sister named Marion?

Unfortunately, I have no other information yet on the Rev Taylor (Marjory's father), though I've seen his specific reference on Marjory's death certificate.

Thanks
David

I have hundreds of people originating from the son of William Smeaton born 1760 and Isabella Soutar born 1760.  He was named William Smeaton and was born in 1798.

I have this couple's offspring down to my cousin and her family in Liverpool, Merseyside.

I have no "sideways" family history for this couple, though, so would welcome any help!
