hi Doreen, I am looking for the following ROBERTSON children: they were not mentioned in their father's WILL of 1845, so I think they might have died young. I was looking for THOMAS [born 1794], JOHN [born 1801], ANN [ born 1804] and WILLIAM [born 1806] all to James Robertson and wife Margaret Ogilvie Robertson [who died before 1808 when James remarried]. Margaret Ogivlie Robertson died between 1806 and 1808 and I have not found her burial either. All children were at least born in Dundee. The FDCA link should have worked but didnt.. my computer and MY lack of expertise in techie things. If you are willing to do this lookup I would appreciate that. thanks liz On Apr 12, 2009, at 11:10 AM, DOREEN CUTHBERT wrote: > > Liz, > I just tried the link from Colin Speed, and it worked fine for me. > > Personally, when I am looking for the site I just use google to look > for FDCA - if it does not come up try google.co.uk - or of course just > key in www.fdca.org.uk > > > Once you get into the site, select databases, then the Howff.
