    3. Many thanks for these suggestions Mike. I had not thought that Mary and other siblings might have come out later to Australia and also to NZ. This is something I can look into. Below in blue italics I have commented on some of your points and also commented further on this families relationships or lack thereof! Cheers Chris -----Original Message----- From: Mike Boyd [mailto:mikejboyd@bigpond.com] Sent: Thursday, 6 September 2018 9:49 AM To: DUMFRIES-GALLOWAY <dumfries-galloway@rootsweb.com>; AYRSHIRE <ayrshire@rootsweb.com> Subject: [AYR] Re: Mary Kerr nee Nelson born c. 1803 Lockerbie Dumfriesshire died ? Chris It looks like you have left no stone unturned. Where in Australia did her son George go to. George and family arrived in Australia on the Rajasthan on 3rd Nov 1862. This voyage was an "assisted passenger" trip under the Queensland Government and they could have disembarked in Brisbane. Instead family history has them leaving the ship in Sydney and taking a Bullock Wagon for approx. 1000 kms up to Coomrith in Queensland. And this after Deborah had given birth to their 2nd child during their sea voyage. George was a Shepherd and a Wool Classer. In 1865 their 3rd child was born in Coomrith, Queensland. In 1869 they came to NZ and lived c. 20 years in the C.Otago area before moving further south. You also said that a son James went to New Zealand. Yes,the following is the story of finding James or James finding me... a year ago this James appeared on several public family trees as my GGrandfather Georges brother. I asked several older family members plus my Mum and her younger brother being the only grandchildren left and they had never heard of a GreatUncle James/Jim Kerr, so I was sceptical. James family arrived in NZ c. 1890 and settled in Waitahuna, just after George's family had moved away from the area. A coincidence??? Perhaps not. Then DNA played its part. James according to his descendants had married his cousin Grace Kerr. Mum and I were both matched to a descendant of the sister of Grace, as well as being matched to descendants of James and Graces children. This still hadn't satisfied me that James and George were brothers. Finally I did a search on our NZ online BMD's and saw that James and Graces daughter Grace had given her daughters all middle names that were the maiden names of her 2 grandmothers Elizabeth Campbell and Mary Neilson and her greatgrandmother Grace Heanan. Hainan being Georges paternal grandmother Graces maiden name. With this I am happy to accept that James and George are more than likely brothers. I just find it disappointing that these brothers families here in NZ and so close physically ,lost contact with each other. One sad reason could have been George and Deborah Dick being very staunch Presbyterians. Grace Kerr had had an illegitimate son before marrying James and so they could have been shunned by George and Deborah. Have you been in touch with the Burns Centre Library at Kilmarnock to see if they may be able to guide you to some of these answers? Thanks for this suggestion Mike I had thought that they family might have moved to Glasgow to work in the Industry there but when I saw that George came to Australia and James went to New Zealand, it is more likely that a few years after they left the rest of hte family followed one or both of them out. You may want to look at passenger records for about a decade or so!! Your comments have also given me the idea that perhaps the eldest son John born in 1828 (10 years older than my George) might have come out before George so I can go down that road also. Any other ideas for Chris? Mike Boyd Brisbane

    3. Hello Chris, Your message suddenly struck me with a surprise (which possibly was already clear to some others). The name Nelson could have developed from Neilson which means the same as MacNeil! Scottish names like that have changed similarly - or not so similarly. I have folk in my tree whose original name was MacSporran which was changed to Pursell which I find very funny - Son of the Purse or Sporran!! MacQuilkan became Wilkinson &c. Thank you for mentioning the Cumnock Monumental Inscriptions. I didn't know about them being online and my family - or part of it - was in Auchinleck, Cumnock and New Cumnock for centuries. I have some McNeils there but never thought of looking for Nelsons, though I don't think my lot did change that particular name except for an extra l in McNeill.

    2. Mike Boyd
    3. This is to advise list members that I will have a few days in RI on 4 & 6 October visiting Libraries to find known Boyd families that I have not previously found. Then on Sunday 7 October, I will, with Daryl Jamieson the Society’s RI Convenor, we will join Melanie at the Scotland, CT games for the day. So if you are from CT, RI or MA, I assume that it will not be too hard for your too get to these Games to discuss your own Boyd history, to ask me questions about Boyd history or advice about your Boyd family tree and perhaps where to research to find the previous (earlier) generation of your Boyd family. And if you have a hard copy (and perhaps an e-copy as well), I can bring those records home and include it in with the already 900 Boyd Family Chapters and a further 3,000 or so other Boyd families that I have yet to process form my trip since 2010. I look forward to seeing you at Scotland, CT (but no snow please, just the autumn leaves). Mike Boyd Chairman Historical Committee, HBS

    2. Mike Boyd
    3. Chris It looks like you have left no stone unturned. 1) Where in Australia did her son George go to. You will need to look in that States passenger arrival records. (I assume that most of these are online these days?) Although, they may have Landed in Sydney and gone by other means straight away to Brisbane. Or moved to another State "shortly" after their arrival. Or landed in Victoria and gone to southern NSW or South Australia? 2) Do you know the ship that George and family came on? 3) I am thinking that Mary Kerr (nee Nelson) may have followed him, perhaps with some of the other children a few years later! (In my late wife's family form County Donegal - one son can out a few years later some brothers and sisters and about a decade later when the father died, the mother brought the rest of the family out to Australia.) So look in the State that George was living in to see if his siblings did not get married there and perhaps his mother died there. 4) You also said that a son James went to New Zealand. So I assume that you have looked for the mother and siblings there? 5) As Mary was about 52 years old when her husband John Kerr died and in 1861 was living with her son, it is "unlikely" that she has remarried!! 6) Have you been in tough with the Burns Centre Library at Kilmarnock to see if they may be able to guide you to some of these answers? I had thought that they family might have moved to Glasgow to work in the Industry there but when I saw that George came to Australia and James went to New Zealand, it is more likely that a few years after they left the rest of hte family followed one or both of them out.

Hi Folks, I am sending this to both the Dumfriesshire and Ayrshire lists as Mary was born in Dumfrieshire and she lived and raised her family in Kirkconnel, Sanquhar and New Cumnock. I cannot find a death record for my 2x Great Grandmother Mary Kerr (nee Nelson). Mary was born in Lockerbie, Dumfriesshire c. 1803 (taken from the census) and she married John Kerr in 1824. Their Marriage Banns were recorded in the Parish of Sanquhar where George resided and Mary was living in the New Cumnock Parish. Hoping to find Mary, thru the free website "Cumnock and Doon Valley Monumental Inscriptions" I have searched thru the gravestone inscriptions for her husband John Kerr, his 1855 death cert recorded him being buried in the New Cumnock Burial Ground but have not found an inscription for him, perhaps he never had a grave stone or it is one that is no longer legible. From the census and their children's birth records they lived in the Parishes of Sanquhar, Kirconnell and New Cumnock from 1824-1861. In the 1861 census Mary is living with her son (my Greatgrandfather) George Kerr and Deborah Dicks young family in Bank Cottage (very close to New Cumnock). After this I can't locate her. Georges family left for Australia in 1862 and Mary is not recorded with them on the ships passenger list. As she was still alive in 1861 I would expect to find her death reg on ScotlandsPeople if she died in Scotland. I haven't so I have searched for her in Britain, and going to USA and Canada. I did not find any Mary Kerr's close to her age as passengers to these countries. On finding several Mary Kerr deaths of the "right age" in England I checked the 1871 census and discovered none could be my Mary. Apart from another son James who also went to NZ , after quite a few lengthy false leads and purchases of death certs I have been unable to find marriages for her other children or deaths or find them in the 1861 and 1871 census's. I would be very grateful for any suggestions on what else I could do to find her death cert and her children! Another puzzle I have is that my Aunt who started researching this family 20 years ago (and is no longer with us so I can't ask her) has recorded a son John born in 1828 at Knockinlea but from ScotlandsPeople his 1854 reg of his 1828 birth gives Rigg, New Cumnok as his birth place. I can only find a Rigg Road just outside of Cumnock and no Knockinlea. From Scotlands People A composite entry for 2 of Mary and John Kerr's children done in 1855 is for the Parish of Sanquhar.. Jane born 5th March 1826 Mary born 31 August 1843.. But my Aunt has recorded Connellbush for Jane and Lochlea for Mary. It's a mystery to me where she has gotten her info from. I would welcome your thoughts on this. Another 1855 composite entry is for 3 of Mary and John Kerrs children born Wellstrand, Parish of Kirkconnel... James born 18 May 1832 Grizzel born 7 May 1834 George born 27th Feb 1838...My Aunt has also recorded Wellstrand for these 3. Another question I have is why would my ggrandfather record his mother's maiden name as McNeil when he married in 1859, when she was Nelson when she married and also recorded as Nelson on her husband's death cert in 1855. I have used both and also Neilson in my searching as this spelling was also used in some of the children's birth records. Many thanks for wading thru all of that.

    1. [AYR] Fw: The number of "Boyds" in the USA in 1790
    2. Mike Boyd
    3. This article will give some idea of the number of Boyds in the USA today. Mike Boyd From: Mike Boyd Sent: Monday, September 3, 2018 5:40 PM To: boyd@rootsweb.com Subject: The number of "Boyds" in the USA in 1790 Members Today were have no idea as to how many Boyds there are in the USA. But below are the number from the 1790 Census. Total USA numbers of Boyd in USA There was a total of 309 BOYD families in USA, with the average BOYD family having 5.8 members. There were also 1,498 adult single and independent BOYDS not members of the above-mentioned households. Pennsylvania (102), North Carolina (41), South Carolina (39), Maryland and Virginia (29 each), and New York (25), with an additional 34 families distributed in the six other new states. Various Boyd spelling variations in 1790 Census The Boyd list member used Heritage Quest through my local library, where they got this summary. Boyd 261 in 11 states Boyde 12 in 2 states Boid 11 in 4 states Boit 1 in 1 state Boyte 4 in 1 state Boyt 21 in 2 states My own Boyd family starts in 1792 and when we had a family re-union in 1984, the family tree that I produced (and totalled 175 pages of family tree data- BDM) was estimated to be about 60% of the estimate descendants of ancestor Thomas Boyd and Eleanor Roche. I think one of the family said it contained some 3,500 names. So multiply the above 3,300 Boyd of this Census by about 5,000 and you may have some idea as to how many Boyds or Boyd descendants are currently and this will not include the new migrants after 1790. Also note the Spelling variations. Perhaps a member or two might be able to identify in which states these spelling variations came from? Thank you Mike Boyd

    2. Mary Paton
    3. Hello List, Please would anyone be willing to look at an 1837 OPR for Loudoun to try to decipher the writing for the baptism of James Morrison son of James Morrison? I don't know whether this is my ggg-grandfather but I am checking the many james sons of James Morrison in Ayrshire. Mine married Anne Brown in Muirkirk in 1778 and I am fairly sure his father was also James. Their first 6 children were James, Thomas, Anne, Catherine, Margaret, Janet. I can send the OPR if anyone is willing. I think Anne's parents were Thomas and Margaret which may mean that James had lost a wife before he married her. If I am correct she was born in New Cumnock. It is like a needle in a haystack hunt and of course he may even not have been born in Ayrshire. Thanks, Mary

    3. Mike - hello. The tree in question is my own (private) tree on Ancestry. It is private for a reason - mainly because I am not sure if all of my information is correct. I certainly don't want people to take incorrect information because we know what happens when we do! By the way, did you receive the shipping files I sent you which my cousin Ann Frew Whyllie and I found last year at The Portal?

    3. Debbie Be very careful in comparing your own sourced - from original data - tree with an Tree that is on "Ancestry". I recently posted to the Boyd list a passage I got form a website - which says it is a single tree for the family of George and Isabella Boyd of the Gap, PA. I have not yet had time to work through it but I think that there are at least 8 separate Boyd families, if not more. And there was no sources for the data. In June 2017, when I was at the LDS Library at Salt lake City, I gave the staff that my own family starts with a James Boyd who married an Ann Nester and had a son Thomas Boyd in 1792 in Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland. I think after four generations this tree "showed" that I came from the Second Earl of Kilmarnock, William Boyd. Whom "Scots Peerage" Vol. 5 1907, showed he only had three children. This Ancestry Chart said he had 14 children, I think it i was. Go with your own data and facts!!! Have a good trip to Ireland Mike Boyd -----Original Message----- From: Deborah Rea Sent: Friday, August 31, 2018 5:09 AM To: AYRSHIRE@rootsweb.com Subject: [AYR] Re: Shields/Blair Hi Bill, I have that however my cousin felt that Agnes m. another Thomas Shields because of our Thomas m. Jean Gillies (1797-1855) first and then Jane Cairns second. The dates don't jive with that of Agnes and Jean. At first I thought that they might have been Mormons as some of my earlier Shields were. John Shields b. 1805 Renfrew was baptised as LDS in 1841 - at age 36 and then went to Ireland for two years as a missionary but ended up dying in Salt Lake city in 1887. However, this part of my tree has ALWAYS troubled me because Elizabeth Gillies (1760-1860) is supposed to be my 6th great grandmother but according to Ancestry she is my 4th great grandmother. My immediate cousins and I all have Gillies in our names and believe we were named after her as she is supposed to be first cousin to Robbie Burns. Debbie

    3. Bill: I thought so as well, but then my cousin in Renfrew said he couldn't be the same person. I am going to Northern Ireland next week and then to Ayrshire. I'm going to do some digging around the Cumnock area to see if I can find anything. How are you related to the Shields?

    3. Interesting, on occasion I have found same names but another generation. I think this Thomas & Agnes are the correct parents for Joseph. Also, one of his children is named Agnes Blair (18 Apr 1864).

Jean Gillies (1797-1855) first and then Jane Cairns second. The dates don't jive with that of Agnes and Jean. At first I thought that they might have been Mormons as some of my earlier Shields were. John Shields b. 1805 Renfrew was baptised as LDS in 1841 - at age 36 and then went to Ireland for two years as a missionary but ended up dying in Salt Lake city in 1887. However, this part of my tree has ALWAYS troubled me because Elizabeth Gillies (1760-1860) is supposed to be my 6th great grandmother but according to Ancestry she is my 4th great grandmother. My immediate cousins and I all have Gillies in our names and believe we were named after her as she is supposed to be first cousin to Robbie Burns.
