    1. Re: [AYR] Paterson's & Robertson's Ayrshire Genealogies
    2. Loretta Layman

    3. The Paterson and Robertson books are very large (some as much as 20 MG's), which can eat up memory on some computers. However, some of them are available at the website www.openlibrary.org, which allows you the flexibility of copying individual page images of your choosing (all books are searchable), rather than downloading entire books. I know these three volumes are at openlibrary: Paterson's "History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigton", Vol. III - [District of] Cuninghame Paterson's "History of the County of Ayr: with a Genealogical Account of the Families of Ayrshire", Vol. I Robertson's "Topographical Description of Ayrshire: More Particularly, of Cunninghame" When you get to the website, enter the desired book title in the search field. Once you "open" a book, you can then search for names (or other text) within the book. I recommend searching only for surnames and then looking at each page because "John Smith", for example, will give you a list of results which include not only those pages with "John Smith" but also all those with just the name "John" and those with just the name "Smith". A good book at openlibrary for people in Irvine, Ayrshire - if you're back into the 18th century or earlier - is Volume II of "Muniments of the Royal Burgh of Irvine".

    3. Hi Liz, I have Kerr's in my family tree starting with Gilbert Kerr who married Margaret Hannah. Their son Hugh was born in Straiton circa 1799 and married Mary McCall. They had nine children born between 1824 and 1844.I then follow sonThomas who was born in1832 and married Margaret Davidson in Dalmellington.They had ten children between 1859 and 1878. Their daughter Janet born 1863 married John Allison in 1881. I hope there may be some connection for you. Valerie, Adelaide. ----- Original Message ----- From: <ayrshire-request@rootsweb.com> To: <ayrshire@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, October 31, 2010 5:30 PM Subject: AYRSHIRE Digest, Vol 5, Issue 283 > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

    3. Hello ,I'm here too.I am trying to find the family of Hannah Henderson who lived age 3 in Burnbrae,and later lived in Symington ,married to Robert Smith. My second reason for being on this list is the research i am doing into the lives ,loves,hopes and hardships of those brave miners and their families who made sure that people like me had heat and light.My interest in this stems from my Scottish husband who started his working life as a miner in Glenburn,where he grew up in the mining village. I have been both amazed and enthralled by his stories ,of his young life in Glenburn and his somewhat confused family connections.His family tragedies,his brother died aged 6 with meningitis ,he had polio,his Mum died at 53 from the effects of picking turnips etc to help make ends meet.So different from my own perfect childhood in rural Dorset,although i must add that my husband remembers his childhood as happy and wouldn't change a thing. If you worked ,lived in,remember those days,or are part of Hannah's family I would love to hear from you.I think there is more to family research than names and dates ,so hope this is ok for this list.

Author: jdw531 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.scotland.ayr.general/1843.1.2.4/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hello Pattie- I know it has been a long tome since you posted this message- but I did want to respond and let you know we are related. Actually- I am related to your husband Steve. I believe his paternal grandfather was Alex Wilson who married Susan Miller. One of their sons was Harold Wilson who married Elaine Colias. I would guess these are your husband's parents. Alex Wilson had a younger brother James who married an Edith Wilson. They had two children Wanda June, and James Wilson(my father). I have been doing a lot of research recently into my father's ancestors, and have found a lot on the Wilson/Lindsay side. You can look at my Wilson Family tree on Ancestry.com, and are welcome to cotact me at jdw53@mchsi.com if you have any questions. My wife and I currently live in Ottumwa, Iowa. My father's mother Edith was hospitalized when he was two, so both he and his sister(Wanda) were passed between relatives from an early age. Both my father and his sister remembered very little from their childhood, and neither was able to give me much to go on. I never met any of my father's relatives other than his sister. I would be anxious to hear if your husband may have any knowledge about his family in the 1920-1940 time frame. Anyhow- hello from Iowa and contact me if I can be of any help.

    1. [AYR] ROLL CALL: BOAG, RANKIN
    2. William Junor

    3. My gggrandfather Robert Boag was born 3 January 1813 at Kilwinning. His parents were William Boag, a weaver, and Margaret Boyd. William and Margaret died when Robert was very young and he was brought up by two unmarried older sisters who, Robert wrote, were "well known for their piety and strict consistency" (I doubt that Robert had a fun childhood!). In 1833, Robert married Jane Rankin, who was born 1810 in Lochwinnoch, daughter of William Rankin, a farmer of Stanley Bank near Dalry, and Jean Carswell. In the same year he opened a school in Dalry, and was later headmaster of three schools in Glasgow between 1838 and 1851. He studied theology at the University of Glasgow in the late 1840s and was licenced by the Presbytery of Glasgow in January 1851. He was appointed minister at Belford in north-east England in 1851 and emigrated to Sydney, Australia in 1853. Looking for more information about Robert and Jane's siblings and ancestors in Scotland. Bill Junor, Sydney

    3. Hi List, I'm searching for Caldwell. I see only one other person has Caldwell in their list. My John and Sarah Caldwell are on the 1841 census and were living in Dundonald with two small daughters. He was a coalminer. Before the next census they had immigrated to Pennsylvania and I have good records of them from that time on, but would like to find their marriage date and the names of their parents. I don't know Sarah's maiden name. Would be grateful for any information or advise. Best wishes, Eileen Hook
