    1. Jefferson and Coulthard
    2. Tricia Beresford
    3. Hi listers I am a new subscriber researching JEFFERSON and COULTHARD both born in Dumfries. Sarah JEFFERSON in 1807 in Annan but no parents listed on the IGI record. She had relocated to Stanwix, Carlisle by the time of her wedding to John HAUGH in 1827. Isabella COLTHARD born in Ruthwell, Dumfries in 1832. Parents John & Mary nee Dalgleish. She married William HAUGH (date unknown, before 1859) Probably in Carlisle as I can't find a marriage for them on the Scots Origins site. Is anybody researching these names? Tricia Beresford Kent UK

    3. Hi Peter, In the 1881 census, the only two Whitehopes are Whitehope cottage at Roberton, apparently a shepherd's cottage. On the other hand, Whitehope, Yarrow, Selkirkshire - head of household John V. Lindsay was a farmer with 2100 acres, 150 arable, employing 6 men and a boy.

    1. McGERRIE, MANDERSON, PHILP, BLACK, GUN SURNAMES
    2. Janis White
    3. I am researching Alexander McGERRIE/McGARY who was born 4June 1819 in the parish of Clieff. He was the illegitimate son of Isabella Philp. Isabella Philp was the daughter of Walter Philp and Isabella Black. On 23 August 1844 Alexander married Isabella Manderson the daughter of Elizabeth Gun and Alexander Manderson. At the marriage Alexander was using the McGerrie name. I don't know when or why his name was changed to McGerrie from Philp. It may have been his father's name or his mother may have married. Isabella and Alexander McGerrie had Walter born 1845, Elizabeth born 1846, Jean born 1850 and John born 1852. The immigrated to the U.S.A. about 1852 and about a year later moved to Weston, Ontario Canada where other children were born. Then they moved to Humphrey Twp. Dist. of Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada. Any info about this family would be appreciated. Janis White Parry Sound, Ontario Canada rjwhite@zeuter.com
