Hi: My name is Peggy Petrie Lock. I live close to Banff, Alberta, Canada in the Rocky Mountains. My grandfather was Duncan Walker Petrie, born, 1879 in Broughty Ferry. He immigrated to Canada in 1906, met and married Maggie Armour from Campbeltown. Duncan's parents were: Thomas Petrie (1833-1910) and Maggie Jane Parker (1974-1917). Thomas's parents were: Alexander Petrie (1799-1870) and Mary Malcolm (1805-1833). Alexander's parents were :Thomas Petrie (1765) and Isobel Heron (1765). I believe this information is correct. I have really enjoyed all the correspondance from all the Petrie folk in Scotland, Australia, NZ, and USA. I would love to hear from anyone who is related to my family which is also Norma Thains family. All the best from Canada. Peggy Lock
Hi Peggy, I am so pleased to have received your message here on the List, and to be able to tell everyone that ... we are of the same Petrie line !!! :o) Along with our 5th Cousin Jim Barclay (also on the list) we now number 3 researchers here on the list who are descended from this particular Petrie line.... Just to let everyone know where we all descend from Alexander Petrie & Mary Malcolm's children..... Jim is descended from Janet Petrie (b.1828 at Panbride, Angus) married Peter Barclay in 1854 @ Arbroath Peggy is descended from Thomas Petrie (b.1833 at Barry, Angus) married Jane Parker in 1866 And I am from their brother William (b.1842 at Barry, Angus).... he is my great great grandfather. William married Elizabeth Fleming in 1867 in Dundee, they had three children but only 1 survived beyond infancy, and then Elizabeth died aged only 28. William then went on to marry his 1st cousin Isabella Malcolm, I am descended from this marriage, so end up related to myself through both the Petrie & Malcolm lines. Peggy have you noticed the Thain connection in our Petrie family tree back in 1813 when our Alexander Petrie's brother John Petrie (b.1792 Monikie) married Agnes Thain at Eassie & Nevay....Agnes Thain was sister of my husband Davie's gggg grandfather !! :o) I spotted that you have Jane Parker noted as "Maggie Jane Parker" I have never seen her listed as such before, can you confirm ?? I wonder if you have her Date of Birth...?? I know from census info she was born around 1847 at Johnstone, Dumfries, but have yet to find anything further on her birth. You have Mary Malcolm d.1833. I have her death cert from 1883, can I assume this is just a typo error... :o) So pleased you enjoy the list Peggy, and your help in promoting our Petrie tree here is very much appreciated .... with the best intentions, it's something I seldom seem to get around to !! :o) Cheerio the noo Norma :o) ----- Original Message ----- From: " Peggy Lock" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2001 5:44 PM Subject: [Petrie-Scotland] Hello > Hi: My name is Peggy Petrie Lock.
