What information do you already have and what are you looking for? I have a very distant connection to the family through various connecting marriages, but not a direct line by any means. William STEWART was born about 1809 in Lintrathan, and I haven't been able to get back to his parents. I have him and his family in the 1841, 1851 and 1861 censuses in Kirriemuir. There should be a death record for him, but since I don't seem to have found it, it was probably after 1875 (since I've been through the 1855-1875 deaths on LDS films). Of their children, James married Mary Ann ROBERTSON in 1859, she was daughter of William Robertson and Jessie LAWSON. They had at least one child, Jessie, in 1858, before their marriage. John married Mary Ann BEGG in 1866. She was the daughter of George Begg and Mary GRANT. Mary Grant was the daughter of John Grant and Janet MITCHELL. Alexander married Isabella DAVIDSON in 1873. Isabella was the daughter of Donald Davidson and Catherine FORBES. Irene, in Michigan **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!

Hi Margaret, There were two Alexander Murrays born in Dundee at that time. Alexander Murray born 11 May 1794 Chris. 26 June 1794 parents Alexander Murray & Ann Brown Alexander Murray born 14 June 1795 Chris. 21 June 1795 parents William Murray & Sussana Galloway. If Alexander died after 1855 his death record from Scotlands People will be the best avenue to take. Lots of their records are not on the IGI. Hope this helps some.

In addition to what Bruce has said on the very useful set of old maps available at the National Library of Scotland website: http://www.nls.uk/ I would encourage anyone wanting to get the best out of maps like "Thomson's Atlas" to use the "View with Plug-In" option. The first time you select this option, you will bedirected to the website: www.lizardtech.com from where you can download the "browser plug-in". This works fine with all Browsers that I have installed it on, and gives a rather better user interface to the maps ("right-click" on a map to bring up the options). Even if they didn't have all the other Goodies, the NLS site would be worth having for their version of the large-scale OS maps: http://www.nls.uk/maps/os/6inch/index.html which, compared to "old-maps.co.uk", offers (with two alternative user interfaces) a far superior way of interacting with the maps, which gives a pretty good on-screen image for free, and which offers both digital images and printouts for considerably less than Old-Maps. Gavin Bell

In response to Mary's request for maps showing old place names in Errol and district I had a look at the maps I had recomended earlier (Further to Willonyards ... Maps) with some suggestions on how to find the specific area she was seeking. The maps are good, highly detailed ... and come in huge chunks that are rather difficult to navigate especially if you are not too familiar with the area. Mary tells me she has had several requests for the details and has suggested I post the detailed instructions on the list. I had previously suggested having a good modern map handy for reference. Mary tells me she managed with a motoring map she bought when visiting the area some years ago. This is what I sent Mary and it worked for her: You can see some of the places you are looking for on the maps I suggested yesterday. Thomson's Atlas is probably the easiest to navigate. This link might take you straight to it www.nls.uk/maps/atlas/thomson . If that doesn't work then: www.nls.uk digital library maps maps of whole of Scotland 1560-1928 (and scroll down a long list) Thomson's Atlas 1832 >From the menu that should appear look for Perthshire. [All areas of Scotland are available, Angus comes in two halves, north and south but the dividing line is rather arbitrary] Now comes the interesting bit, a test of your eyesight and knowledge of the area. The map comes in 4 sections, look at the bottom right one. In the top right corner of that you can make out the Firth of Tay, point to the place where it narrows and click, the full quarter map should now fill the screen. Point and click at a place where the river is still quite wide. The map will gradually enlarge until you can just make out Parish boundries and maybe read the larger names. You should be able to center on Errol. Note: each click enlarges the map a little and the enlargement is centered on the spot you point to. With a bit of fiddling you should get the Parish of Errol to fill most ot the map area and some of the place names you are looking for can be seen or there is a similar name. If you want to take this further try the hard way, use Roy's Military Map of 1747-55 http://geo.nls.uk/roy-highlands or proceed as before and scroll down the maps of Scotland for Roy's Military Map. At the bottom of the next panel you get the option of Highlands of Lowlands, choose Highlands. Now you have to find the Tay at the bottom right of the huge blank map, I got the Forth first attempt and finished up in Stirling. This thing works a bit like Multimap, there is a scale on the right for magnification (use it step by step or you tend to get lost) and a 4 direction pointer that moves you up, down or sideways. When you have found the Tay (Buddon Point should be easy) enlarge a little and work westward past Dundee (which is a very small place at that time) until you come to a lot of field outlines on the north bank. Enlarge that a little and start to look for familliar names. I found Errol House and worked on the surrounding area. Fiddly but worthwhile and you will see more of the names you want including Dyke of Murie, I think it is Dykeside of Murie. [Obviously I wrote this specifically to locate Errol. Other pointers worth noting for finding places in Angus are: Forfar is almost directly north of Dundee (straight up) so finding the Tay and Dundee is a good starting place. Glamis is west of Forfar (left), Kirriemuir north of Glamis and Eassie and Cupar Angus further west. Carnoustie, Arbroath and Montrose are probably easiest to find by following the coast. Brechin is almost directly inland, west, of Montrose or slightly north-east of Forfar (pan right and up a little).] Best of luck, Bruce D

Am looking for relatives of William Stewart who married Margaret Chalmers in 1832 in Kirriemuir. Children of William and Margaret were James, David, Archibald, John, George, Alexander, Ann (Agnes) and Mary. Is anyone researching this line of the Stewart family? __________________________________________________________________ The new Internet Explorer® 8 - Faster, safer, easier. Optimized for Yahoo!

Hi Everyone, I have just joined this list, and was hoping that someone could help me as I have a problem. I have an Alexander MURRAY born 1799 Dundee, married 1826 at Dundee, to Mary BISSET, born 1799, Dundee. They had six children, 1]. Mary Nicoll, born 1827 Dundee, 2]. George Newall born 1829 Dundee, 3]. John born 1831 Dundee, 4]. James Cargill, born 1833 Aberdeen, 5]. Andrew born 1836, Aberdeen, 6]. Jane Dow, born 1839, Aberdeen. My problem is that I cannot find Alexander MURRAY's parents. I have using the traditional naming pattern, but I cannot find a marriage between a George MURRAY and a Jane.......... , who had a son Alexander, born Dundee, 1799 etc. I have tried using the names Nicoll, Newall, Cargill and Dow, all without sucess, and any other names you can possibly think of!! Does anyone have any idea, what to do next, and does anyone know of this above family? Regards, Margaret

Both would normally have paid rent (although some part of that rent might have been paid in the form of labour) and would have expected a certain amount of seasonal employment from the landlord. But while a Crofter had a small piece of ground (the Croft, probably no more than 10 acres) on which he could pasture a cow and grow some subsistence crops, the Cottar had, at most a "Kailyard" or small garden where he might at best grow some vegetables. >And then there are fues and bothy. > Not "fues" but "feus". These are a form of annual Ground Rent. Until quite recently, the system of land tenure in Scotland depended on the useful fiction that all land belonged ultimately to the Crown. The Crown would then allow an individual the use of a piece of land in return for certain specified "services". Originally, the service would have been the provision of soldiers to fight the King's wars, but over time, these were commuted to cash payments. The system sounds antiquated, but served pretty well in a number of ways. In the case of my house for example (built in 1897), the firm of builders which put it up had to start by taking the "feu" on the whole street, for which thay had to pay several hundred pounds annually to the "feudal superior" (the Town Council). The only way they were ever going to get anything back for this annual payment was if they built some houses on the land, and were, in turn, able to charge a much smaller "feu duty" on each of the occupants of the houses. So in this, the feudal system acted as a lever to make the builders get on with the development. Another useful feature of the system was the various limitations which each "superior" could enforce on his "vassals". Modern "town planning", or zoning different areas for different kinds of development, did not really come in until the 20th century. But the "feu disposition" (="title deeds") for my house forbid me from carrying out various anti-social activities such as brewing or soap-boiling, thus ensuring the residential status of the street. As for "bothy" - this was the building on a large farm where the unmarried farm servants lived, on a "self-catering" basis. An alternative on some farms was the "chalmer" (or "chamber"), where the unmarried men slept, their meals being supplied in the farm kitchen. Gavin Bell

Gavin and list, Are there other books that people on the list have enjoyed, or use as a frequent reference. I love my Chamber's Broad Scot dictionary circa 1880. I never thought until now, I should be using it for place names, but it's downstairs in my larger library, so inconvenient as my mobility is so bad. I have book shelves in almost every room, but they are never "at hand". I appreciate your suggestion Gavin, that I should always have more than one source. It's kind of a "golden rule" for genealogy research. Mary In a message dated 5/10/2009 2:37:03 P.M.
