Author: sandrachapman1966 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lorimer/219.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My grandfathers mother is listed as Grace Lorimer born in New Zealand 1882 to Robert and Grace (Gracie) Lorimer. They also had Ruth Catherine 1884, Frederick 1891 Robert Jnr 1881 Herbert 1886 Charles William 1877 and Ethel Margaret 1879. The connection here is that I have found a Headstone in the Southern Cemetary in Dunedin, NZ, with Frederick and Herbert buried - with these words "In Loving Memory of Alexander Brebner, 1789-1870 and his dear wife Ann (ne Glendinning) 1794 1879 and their Daughter and son in law Margaret 1825-1907 and Charles Lorimer 1823-1887 and their Grandsons John 1848-1869 and Adam 1869-1870 Lorimer and their Great-grandsons Frederick and Herbert Lorimer - Frederick died 1911 and Herbert 1936" - how did Frederick and Herbert get buried with this family, as their father was Robert - how was he related to Charles? Adam's middle name is Glendinning - This is the question I hope you get some information for your family too. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

They both have basically the same names for their children. I'm not sure if the brothers (Alexander and William) were both married to the same Jean. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Don't know if you'll pick this up after 5 years! I'm doing some research for a friend, whose father was (if I'm right) Thomas Paul Lorimer (1893-1966). His line was Archibald, Adam, Archibald, etc. - the same as yours. But I know that Thomas Paul Lorimer was married twice, and my friend's mother (Adele Svedas, aka Russell, a Lithuanian) was his 2nd wife. Who was Ella? Was she Thomas' first wife? I would really like to know, as if she was, there might be children who are half-brothers and half-sisters to my friend. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
