My great great grandparents were John Loggie 1814-1872 and Elizabeth Allison Blythe. His parents were William Loggie and Jean Goldie. I further descend through John's son James, who married Helen Kennedy Swann in 1864 in Muirkirk. Cheers. George L. Gray Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

As you probably recall I am pretty certain that we are very distantly related! There were two Jean Goldies in Muirkirk in the days of your ggg-grandparents. One was my gg-aunt, the daughter of Hugh Goldie and Elizabeth Kay/Kaye, The other was my 1st cousin 4 times removed, the daughter of George Goldie and Hannah Kay/Kaye. I believe Hugh and George were brothers and Hannah and Elizabeth were sisters so the two Jeans were double-first cousins, granddaughters of James Kay and Jean Mitchell. I think it was George and Hannah's daughter who married William Loggie which would make us probably double 4th cousins once removed! It is also possible that the Jean Goldie who married William Loggie was the one who was daughter to Hugh Goldie and Elizabeth Kay. Does this make sense and do you agree? Best regards, Mary
