Hi Carol Take care with the Kirkmichaels...there are/were five! In Ross & Cromarty (Dist No. 79), Ayr(600), Banff(160), Dumfries(836) and the one you want in Perth where the District Number is 370. A map would be useful but as districts changed over the years perhaps obtaining a list of all Perthshire Parishes (eg fromKathleen Cory's "Tracing Your Scottish Ancestry") Good book on its own anyway.

Hi list, I am researching John Cosgrove, b abt 1827, in Blairgowrie, Perth. He would have been about 14 during 1841 census. Hopefully, living with his family. Could SKS do a look up for John Cosgrove? Thank you, Catherine

Thank you to Ian McD, Alistair B, and Alan T (who, in an earlier inquiry helped me find the starting point for my Taitt/Robertson Perthshire ancestors). I went on the Pitlochry family history website that I was provided and found the parish map. I also found my gggg-grandfather, Robert Tait, listed in the Logierait burials for 1790! What an unexpected find. 1. Robert was listed as living in "Balnaguard". Any info on that place name would be appreciated. Would there possibly be gravestones in a cemetery? 2. Is anyone able to tell me the basics on the Pitlochry vs. the Tay Valley family history groups, especially given the parishes that I seem to be connected to at this point? 3. Recommendations on books, etc on the history and people of these areas of Perthshire (that I can access from the USA) would be greatly appreciated. (I found the Statistical Accounts on-line.) I am attaching the basic information that I have re: my Tait/Taitt and Robertson ancestors in the event someone recognizes names/places. I would like to find familial ties.

Lynn When I saw you MacNaughton marrying a MacLennan I became suspicious I know of the Angus born 1813 in Kincardine in Menteith - he would appear to have been born on Plot 8 Robertson's Lane, Blair Drummond. There are very few MacLennans in the area of KiM - this is what made me suspicious There was, however, a marriage of an Angus MacNaughton to a Margaret MacLennan in Uig, Ross & Cromarty with Banns proclaimed 28 December 1844. I could be wrong, given what Ryk said in another message, that he married in Canada The above is the only instance I can find of an Angus MacNaughton marrying a MacLennan Regards Tony Home page: http://www.tmurray.stirling.co.uk
Dear all I'm looking for information regarding a James MCGREGOR who married Janet CAMPBELL, possibly in Logierait around 1840 - 1850. Their son Charles MCGREGOR was born 24/10/1850 in Logierait and he died there 16/2/1873. He never married but was the father of Duncan MCGREGOR born about 1870. Duncan married Mary Thomson BRUCE in January 1889 in Auchtergaven. Any information about these families would be much appreciated. Julia Dundee, Scotland

Eastertyre lies just east of Ballechin.

Hi all, I need to know where "Egsterlyre" could be? I have a OPR page for a marriage from: Logierait, Perthshire November 27, 1810 It reads: "David Duff servant to Major Macglashan of Egsterlyre & Ann Stewart Daughter of John Stewart in Croft of Ballechin gave up their names for proclamation of the Bans of marriage, granted Marriage line 27 Curh(???)"

-----Original Message----- From: Helen Curtis [mailto:Helen@denarius.freeserve.co.uk] Sent: Saturday, October 30, 2004 6:53 AM To: Helen M Curtis Subject: London And Edinburgh Hello All Just to let you know that I will be going to London to research on the 15th November and to Edinburgh on the 29th November. I apologise for my web page being down for a while, and thanks to those of you who contacted me to tell me. A web hosting problem. I have made a spreadsheet of the film numbers of the pre 1855 Glasgow burials. Please contact me if you would like a copy of this. As ever, looking forward to hearing from you. Best wishes Helen Curtis www.genealogicalservices.co.uk https://www.paypal.com/affil/pal=69S39TKXLGGEQ
List, The following is the extracted last paragraph of one of today's e-mail messages to me from Gordon McGregor. (Quote) After careful consideration of this entire situation it is with regret that we announce that no new orders will be taken for "The Landed Families of Perthshire Vol. 1" effective from 1 November, 2004. Furthermore, it has also been decided that all other similar works presently in preparation will not be published nor will information be made available via either websites or email. This has been deemed necessary so to avoid a repetition of such a situation which, although entered into with the best of intentions, has proven to be equally as frustrating for both myself and my family as much as for those who have attempted to obtain copies of this work. All orders placed to date will be fulfilled within the next four weeks which is our current backlog. In good faith Gordon A. MacGregor (End Quote) To all interested parties, I pray my inquiry had little to do with Gordon's decision. Considering Gordon's character references, I have no further concerns. Wishing all well, Sincerely, Lawrence David Rodger, Patriarch, "CRNC, USA"
