Whilst on the MURRAYS Would anyone have any connection to Robert MURRAY b. 1784 x Jane SEATON b. 1788 Children: Robert b.1822 James b. ? Mary b. 1829 x CARRUTHERS & x DONALD William b. 1810 x Cathrine McGOWAN Children of William & Cathrine Robert b. 1839 William b. 1852 + others Rgds Ian Carruthers <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<snip>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> From: Ian > Thanks very much for your useful and informative comments.I have only just started on this line really so I am not a member of the D&GFHS yet. > Yes the family did appear to move together at sometime before 1841 most likely around 1838 > I have found James Murray senior and the five children in all census'from 1841 in County Durham.In all cases the entries refer only to Scotland with the exception of James who once was described as being born Dumfries, Dumfriesshire NBL!!! and Robert Murray who has consistently been quoted as being from Durisdeer,Durrisdeer Duradean amongst other spellings.
