Wendy for Dee (Collie, West Australia) [email protected] ---------------- from Gordon F Montgomery <[email protected]> Hi Wendy my gg grandfather Henry Montgomery married Mary Gillespie at Alticry farm in the parish of Mochrum Jan 1864 she was 30 at the time of the wedding her parents were John Gillespie (coal miner) and Jane Stewart Both parents listed as deceased on the extract of marriages I do not think that any coal was mined in Wigtownshire so possibly thisGillespie family came from Ayr or Dumfries Shire Hope that this is of some help Gord - ---------------------------------- >From "Rod & Hazel Gillespie" <[email protected]> Good morning everyone, this is my first posting..I am trying to trace my family in Scotland and although my GGrandfather was borne in Borgue in 1838 I believe that his father came from Glasgow. His name wes Andrew Gillespie and his mothers name was Elizabeth Kelly. I imagine that he would have been born about 1800 as their first daughter Robina was born in Borgue in 1826. I have been able to get some information from the GRO. If anyone is researching this family I would be able to help with the Australian side as my GGrandfather Samuel Smith gillespie came to Australia in 1862. Thank you for reading this.
