Presume that the family relocated to Stevenston from Belfast sometime between 1909 and 1917. Robert Thompson (B: 20 Jan 1872, Greenock Scotland) married Martha Ann Poots (B: 22 Nov 1875, Belfast Ireland) on 11 July 1903 (Belfast, Ireland). Four children: Son - Robert B: 19 Jun 1904 (Belfast, Ireland) married Florence Scott, then Margaret Duffield. Son - John Poots B: 8 Dec 1905 (Belfast, Ireland) married Sarah Hunter Arnott McClone. Daughter - Graham Barbour B: 20 Oct 1909 (Belfast, Ireland) Daughter - Margaret Johnston B: 29 Oct 1917 (Stevenston, Scotland). Margaret is my grandmother. I would love to make contact with any descendants to further my research into the Thompson and Poots families. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
