I havent yet shared my recently found interest in the JARVIE name so thought I would as the list posts are not many these days. I know there are others who have the JARVIE name within their tree, without a main interest in the name, but I am hoping there might be others with a closer interest. I have searched and paid Scotland's People for deaths of John JARVIE from 1855 to 1885 and calculated their dob in case someone would like to check the list with me. Don and I have shared the information I have already found so I hope too he will forgive me if I repeat it here. My interest is in John JARVIE b abt 1825 and Hope GILFILLAN b abt 1827 who married on 20 December 1847 [Hope's parents were apparently William GILFILLAN and Hope ROBERTSON] John and Hope had 3 children, the first of whom was Elizabeth JARVIE b abt 1852 who married Robert ROWAT b abt 1830 whose 4th wife she was, on 24 July 1884 and by this date John JARVIE and Hope Gilfillan JARVIE were "deceased" As you will have guessed I am looking for the parents of John JARVIE b 1825. What I have found about this family paints a sad picture and story in itself. The other children of the marriage of John JARVIE and Hope Gilfillan JARVIE were: Frederick JARVIE b 22.1.1856 Robina JARVIE b 22.1.1856 Robina JARVIE died at 3 a.m. 6th February 1856 Frederick JARVIE died at 3 a.m and Hope Gilfillan JARVIE at 10 p.m. on 7th February 1856 and the entries of their deaths are on the same page and following the death of Robina on the previous pages of the Register. I cant find John JARVIE and Elizabeth JARVIE in the census in 1861; I had hoped I might find him with a sister or even his mother looking after Elizabeth whilst he went out to work; he was a journeyman Engineer apparently. I've not found them in the 1871 census either separately or together. I purchased 4 certificates of death of John JARVIE born about 1825 so if anyone is interested in those do let me know. I also contemplated he might have married and I was startled to find a possible event with a marriage of one John JARVIE and Christian GRAHAM whose wife predeceased him and he ended his days a Pauper in the Poors House. I realise that there are some sad stories to tell and find and that I am probably looking for a needle in a haystack but is there any one here searching JARVIE with a principal interest in the name?

Thanks Ann. I think I mentioned the family off list a few days ago. I understand this particular John JARVIE is something of a mystery man. I have put it in the hands of GROS. The sharing we have had over the past 5 years is much appreciated. Janet ----- Original Message ----- From: "anne kirk" <kakirk@bigpond.net.au> : Hello Janet : One of my major families is JARVIE.
