A  Robert JAMIE  had  his  house  labelled  in  1787  sketchmap  of  Catrine. Catrine  M.I.  lists a Robert  JAMIE  Catrine  bleaching  works  27  July  1862. Shortly  after  inception  1837, the  United  Secession (  later  U. P.) church  appointed  a  Robert  JAMIE  as  precentor. Presumably  these  Roberts  are  one  and the  same,  but  does  anyone  know  if  he  had  descendants  or  who  his  ancestors  were?.......I  am  researching  the  name  in  Montrose  and  remembered  the  above  Robert....Heather

Unsucessfully, I might add.

But I cannot see any other children. John married Elizabeth Purvis in Riccarton on 19 NOV 1833. They are in 1841 and 1851 census in Kilmarnock with children Margaret, Alexander, Robert and Elizabeth. You don't give a name for your ancestor. Always best to start with what you know! Good luck. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

However on scotlandlspeople there is a marriage in 1911 in Ayr for Donald Hogg and Margaret Alexander. You need to get credits for £6 and access the marriage record which will give you their parents. Then search for births for Hogg in Ayr or wherever else you think they might have lived. You can get up to 25 results per search for the same payment, so don't type in "john".

Cecilia, The Mass. death records should give you more information on their parents. Have you located death or census records in MA records yet? That may give you more to go on in the Scottish records.
