    1. AFFLECK MI puzzle
    2. Hi List, I have Mary AFFLECK ( Hotel Keeper) & widow of Robert AFFLECK ( Inn Keeper) died Kirkpatrick Durham June 8 1881 aged 80 , parents John GILSTON and Jane McCLURE. Son of above; Thomas AFFLECK died Aug. 24th. aged 36, K.Durham also another son Samuel AFFLECK died April 3rd 1858 aged 23, K.Durham interred at Urr churchyard. So I looked in Vol. 5 of my MI books for The Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, and found this MI, but I cannot make much sense of it, and thought someone may see what I cannot. imo Robt. AFFLECK fr Little Firthead and Chipperkyle, K. Durham b 1744 d 1808, w Agnes McMURRAY 1753 1818, chn; Samuel, Firthead1778 1789, Agnes 1787 1814 ( h Robt CAMPBELL), Janet 1776 1815 ( h Jas McGEORGE), Eliz, K. Durham b 1780 d 1839 , John 1782 1840, Robt 1785 1848 ( w Marion LOCKE 1792 1849), chn, John 1812 1812, Robt Liverpool b 1813 d 1836, *Samuel, KP.D, 1835 1858. *Thos, KPD, 1840 1876 ), Mary AFFLECK 1801 1881 My problem is that Robt . who died 1836 cold not have been Mary's husband as he died 4 years before *Thom. was born. Also strange that as Mary AFFLECK not maiden name GILSTON. In the 1841 census, husband Robt. is not around and in 1851she was a widow. Can anyone help? Kind Regards Jeanette (from Pitlochry) D&G MEMBER 3052
