Author: RussellBegg Surnames: Loggie Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.scotland.ayr.general/13926.1.1.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi Renee, I'm from the Muirkirk Loggies as well, I met a man on the message boards about six years ago who'd been researching the family using traditional methods (actually traveling to Scotland to look at records, gravestone rubbings, etc.) since the early 70's who photocopied a lot of his research for me. I've done a little more online but haven't tried to branch out too much on the Loggies. Anyhow, don't let the spelling changes bother you, their the same family, spellings sometimes change over time whithin families or depending on who wrote down the information. I just logged onto my scotlandspeople.gov.uk account and ran a couple searches for you. Dec 23,1881 marriage record between: Agnes Logie (19 yrs, domestic servant, parents: William Logie - coal miner & Barbara Logie i.e. Harkness) John Maxwell (28 yrs, ploughman, parents: John Maxwell - shepherd (deceased) & Helen Maxwell i.e. Ferguson) Feb 17 ?, 1857 marriage record between: Barbara Harkness (22 yrs, parents: James Harkness - peddler & Esther Wilson his wife) William Loggie (20 yrs, parents: John Logie - miner & Elisabeth Logie Blythe) This John Logie is the son of William Loggie and Jean Goldie in the early 1800's. I come down through John Loggie and Elizabeth Allison Blythe Loggie's daughter, Jean Goldie Loggie so I've gotten about as far back as everyone else before the trail goes cold.
