This was drawn-up for my grandmother--Bethia Tate Cuthbertson--on 17th October 1913. James had two older brothers, Alexander and Robert, and a younger sister, Margaret. His father was Robert Cuthbertson, (I do not know the name of his mother) who had an elder brother Alexander*. His grand-parents were James Cuthbertson and Barbara Mason who married in 1777 at St Cuthberts, Edinburgh. James and Catherine had seven children; Twins Robert and Malcolm, Janet, Margaret, Alexander, Elizabeth and Kate. From hereon, I know only that Robert married Ann Dunn and they had nine children; Marian, Malcolm, Jean, James, Kate, Robert, Jenny, Margaret and Alexander. Marian, the eldest, married a 'Marchbank' and they had three children; William, Ann and Helen. I am descended from the Alexander noted thus*, who married Margaret Fairbairn in 1813? also in St Cuthberts, and who in turn had eleven children. My grandmother was the daughter of the tenth child, David Pollock Cuthbertson, who married Beathia Brown Tait in 1859. My grandmother (one of nine children)married into the Corlett's of the Isle of Man, as did her eldest sister. Hope the above is of some interest. Derek Corlett. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 09, 2006 11:59 PM Subject: Re: Cuthbertson conection > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Cuthbertson Mackay > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ngQ.2ACEB/41.45.47.75.1.1.1 > > Message Board Post: > > Hello, > My name is wendy i too have a cuthbertson & mackay connection. i dont have > very much.
