denholms in east lothian

[CROCUS]

Looking for the parents of James Denholm married to Agnes Hunter: were they James Denholm and Jean Nisbet, noticed a lot of Denholm questions on this site - James Denholm is my 6th generations back  great grandfather

I have Denholm's in my family, however I haven't done a lot of research on them. Does anyone have any Denholm's who ended up living in the Gilmerton / Liberton area of Edinburgh.

Hello
I'm afraid I haven't any information on my Denholm kin, sorry but I came to a dead end with this part of my tree, which you can have a look at on Ancestry under Ellis

Hi Tom,

All my line of Denholms moved to Fife.  George Anderson Denholm was my 1st cousin twice removed.  Born Hill of Beath 15 Aug 1915.  A professional footballer who play for both Scottish and English football.  I am told he died  1998 or 1999, he lived in the Edinburgh area.  And possibly married to El Shearer.

The Denholm line goes back to Oldhamstock, Cockburnspath and Innerwick.  So maybe George is related down the line.

Hello Andy,
George Anderson Denholm married Helen McIntyre Shearer in 1939 at Dalgetty Bay. Info isn't online. Good to know you are back on the trail. Have posted message for you on Berwickshire Forum.

Hello Tom,
Andy and I share the same 2xGGF, John Denholm. I am descended from a son of his first marriage, Andy from his second marriage, hence me from Tranent and Andy's direct relatives from Fife. The elder children from the first marriage stayed in Tranent when John, his second wife and younger children moved to Hill of Beath.
