I have not contacted this list before but I see the discussion at the moment is the name "Dalgarno". My GG Grandmother was Isabella Dalgarno who was born in St Fergus, Banffshire in 1814. I believe her parents were William Dalgarno (B: 1792 Slains - D: 1828 Kirkton, St Fergus) and Ann Mair (1775 Gardenstown, Gamrie, Banffshire - D: 1856 Kirktown, St Fergus) - but the family rumour, from a rather "staid" great aunt, was that Isabella was descended from a Captain Dalgarno and a Miss Sangster! Isabella was married in Lonmay in 1833 to Charles Kerr (B: 1806 Lonmay, son of James Kerr and Margaret Warrender) . Charles was a cattleman at Essie, St Fergus and emmigrated to Australia with his wife and 3 of their children on the "Gresham" in 1869. I am wondering if anyone have Isabella or Charles in their tree. Regards Margaret Martin
I have a William Dalgarno born 24 Feb 1792. His parents Sylvestor Dalgarno and Margaret Greig. I also have a John Dalgarno (my 4th great-grandfather) b. 1726 d. 1827 married 18 Jan 1757 to Margaret Sangster. Would any of these people fit into your family.
