Hi All My mother was Agnes Petrie before she married, and lived in Denniston, Glasgow. Her father was John Caird Petrie b 10.10.1889 at 30 Millgate Loan, Arbroath. I know he had many brothers and sisters, but only know of 4. His father was James Petrie b around 1850 and was a blacksmith. He married Agnes Anderson Steven on June 19th 1874 in Arbroath. If anyone thinks they may have links with this Petrie line I would love to hear from you and exchange information.

Hello Eleanor, I have quite a bit of information in my database on the Petrie line of James Petrie spouse of Agnes Anderson Steven, which I will be delighted to pass it on to you. Most of the information on James & Agnes's children was found on the family gravestone at Arbroath Western Cemetery and in the Arbroath Western Cemetery Burial Records currently I am aware of 10 children including your grandfather John Caird Petrie. Gravestone Memorial Inscription Erected by Mrs. PETRIE in memory of her husband JAMES PETRIE, Blacksmith, who died 27 January 1901 aged 51, their son WILLIAM died 21 January 1901 aged 26, their daughter LAURA ANDERSON died 29 march 1893 aged 14 months, their son Armr. Sergt. ROBERT M. PETRIE, F & F Yeomanry, killed in action in Gallipoli 3rd October 1915 aged 29 years. also the above Mrs. AGNES PETRIE who died 23 November 1916 aged 66 years, also their daughter AGNES who died 09 January 1919 aged 34. HANNAH BAYNE died 19 December 1953 aged 66 years and their son JOHN C. PETRIE died 10 July 1961 aged 71 years. WILLIAM CARRIE who died 20 May 1955 and his wife JANE GIBB PETRIE who died 30 May 1956 both aged 76 years. (Western Cemetery, Section R , Arbroath) You can find further details on them in the Arbroath Western Cemetery Burial Records which I have uploaded to our Petrie-Scotland Website in the Filing Cabinet, (Category - Burial Records) I notice from the above that your Robert M. Petrie, was amongst the 1st world war Roll of Honour details you posted to the list yesterday. You probably know already, but in case not, you can check out the details they have on him at the Commonwealth War Grave Commission website http://yard.ccta.gov.uk/cwgc/register.nsf Do you know who the above noted Hannah Bayne was ?? The Burial records note her as Hannah Petrie and single, so perhaps Bayne was her middle name, but it also might be an error in the Burial records as she does not show up in the area in the 1881 census....so I cannot yet determine if she was a daughter of James & Agnes or a wife of one of the boys ?? James & Agnes's family can also be found in the 1881 census at Reference: St. Vigeans 1881 (272 district 24 page 36) The census details can be found in our Filing Cabinet of the Petrie-Scotland website (category - 1881 census) File Name: 1881 Census - Angus >From the accumulated information the known family appear to be.... Marriage 19 June 1874 at Arbroath JAMES PETRIE & AGNES ANDERSON STEVEN (source IGI & Marriage Certificate) WILLIAM PETRIE born 23 November 1874 - Unmarried ALEXANDER GRAY PETRIE born c1877 - married LILLIE CAMPBELL MARGARET J. PETRIE born c1879 CHRISTINA PETRIE born c1880 JANE GIBB PETRIE born c1880 - married WILLIAM CARRIE AGNES PETRIE born c1885 - Unmarried ROBERT M. PETRIE born c1886 JOHN C. PETRIE born c1890 LAURA ANDERSON PETRIE born c1891 - Died in Childhood ANN GRAY PETRIE born c1895 - Unmarried **************** I have the parental details from James & Agnes's 1874 marriage certificate, however I noted these a long time ago and it was before I started to keep copies of the certificate transcriptions so I only have the Marriage Certificate Reference Number for you at the moment.... Marriage Ref: 1874 Arbroath Page 43 Entry No. 86 His parents were noted on the certificate as WILLIAM PETRIE & MARGARET MILNE Her parents were noted as JAMES STEVEN (Reputed Father) & MARGARET GRAY Margaret Milne was also known as Margaret Mill....the surname variation was a frustrating habit of the Arbroath Parish Clerks & Registrar's who at times appeared to automatically change Mill to Milne & sometimes back again, depending on who was taking the details !! However she can be verified as one and the same person through other known details. His parents names lead us to another pile of information I have on his parents, siblings and their families....just let me know if you want this information too. Must apologise for the lengthy reply, hope it's of interest.
