Hello List. I am new to this list and am researching RAMSAY from Grafton/Manning River/Raymond terrace - in particular JOHN MCLEOD who marr. CATHERINE RAMSAY in 1881 in Manning River area. Yvonne
Hi Yvonne, When speaking to one of our family members tonight, I was told there is a printed book entitled "The Descendants of William Ramsay." In that publication there is a Catherine Ramsay b.29 Jan 1849, d. 23 Aug 1932 who married a John McLeod on 15 Sep 1878. John was born 13 Dec 1871(? - this is obviously wrong). No place names, unfortunately. BTW, the original William Ramsay (of book title fame) was born c1778 and d. 9 Jul 1841. He married Janet White in 1802 who was b. 1779 and d.7 Oct 1854. I was given this information tonight over the telephone. I checked the State Libraries of NSW and QLD, and National Library without success. Maybe it is a privately printed family history, or maybe the title is different. If you care to contact me outside of this newsgroup, I will give you another Ramsay contact in Armidale who is very happy to assist. Regards....Rex Toomey Port Macquarie NSW
