Alan and Mary, I have a Thomas GOUDIE/GOLDIE married to Margaret Ann Ro(r)rison HILLHOUSE b 1843 in Stair, Ayr... !CENSUS: Source: 1861 Scotland Census Reg. No.: 608 Reg. District: New Cumnock Civil Parish: New Cumnock County: Ayrshire ED: 1; Page: 11; Line: 9 Household Sched.

By the time of the 1871 census he had re-married to Mary and by the 1891 to an Elisabeth.. Does he connect to either of you. I also have copies of 1841-51-61 census of a Hugh GOLDIE b Sct. and his family living in Sussex, Eng.

All except the last two born New Milns and they were born Catrine. There's a gap between Andrew 34 and Mary 23 so I would guess there were other sons and daughters - possibly another Alexander or Alan. I'd be very interested in any replies you get for this question as I have rather elusive Goldies in Ayrshire.
