Thanks Les > Win said > >> John CURRIE married Jane McKAY (no record of marriage found) children: Murdoch and Hector b Torosay, Alexander, Agnes, Sarah, Anne, Cirsty and Janet b Morvern. Some of these are on the IGI (and OPR), but no further information found and some are not on the IGI (or OPR) but I have found marriages and deaths for them. > > This Census entry for Morvern seems to be for Jane(t) McKAY and 3 of her CURRIE children > > 1841 Morvern ARL Psh 528 ED 1 pg 7 - Knock > > Line > 17 Alexr CURRIE 20 Ag Lab b ARL > 18 Jannet CURRIE 55 b ARL > 19 Jannet CURRIE 13 b ARL > 20 Cirsty CURRIE 8 b ARL > 21 Donald McFADYEN 50 Shoemaker ARL I have no way of knowing for sure, but I THINK this Cirsty CURRIE was the GRAND-daughter of Janet - daughter of Murdoch CURRIE and his first wife Cirsty KENNEDY. (This Cirsty/Christina married James MERRY 1855 Torosay) > And these entries appear to be for John and Jane(t)s sons Murdoch, Hector and Alexander. > > 1881 Morvern ARL Psh 528 ED 6 pg 2 - B Livingstone Land, Lochaline > > Murdoch CURRIE Head Mrrd 75 Ag lab b Torosay ARL > Catherine CURRIE Wife Mrrd 58 b Torosay ARL Yes, this is Murdoch with his second wife Catherine CAMERON. They were married 5th Feb 1867. Murdoch's first wife Cirsty/Christina KENNEDY died 22 Jan 1864. Her parents were Neil KENNEDY and Flora M/S MacKAY > > 1881 Morvern ARL Psh 528 ED 6 pg 7 - Currie's House, Lochaline > > Hector CURRIE Head Mrrd 62 Rural letter carrier b Torosay ARL > Ann CURRIE Wife Mrrd 48 b Morvern ARL > Allan CURRIE Son Unm 22 Rural letter carrier b Morvern ARL > Isabella CURRIE Dau Unm 21 Dom Serv b Morvern ARL > Ann CURRIE Dau Unm 14 Scholar b Morvern ARL > Mary CURRIE Dau Unm 11 Scholar b Morvern ARL > Hector CURRIE Son Unm 4 b Morvern ARL > I've found out that this Hector is NOT "ours". His parents were Donald CURRIE and Ann BUCHANAN. His wife is Ann MacEACHERN. They were married Morvern 1855. There is a Pedigree Submsssion on the familysearch site which lists Murdoch CURRIE as also being the son of Donald CURRIE and Ann BUCHANAN. THAT INFORMATION IS NOT CORRECT ! Murdoch is definitely the son of John CURRIE and Janet MacKAY. > 1881 Cardross DNB Psh 494 ED 6 pg 33 - Millburn > > Alexander CURRIE Head Mrrd Labourer b Morvern ARL > Christina CURRIE Wife 55 b Inveraray ARL > Alexander CURRIE Son 16 Iron Moulder b Renton DNB > John CURRIE Son 12 Scholar b Renton DNB > Jannet CURRIE Dau 22 Print field worker b Renton DNB > Christins CURRIE Dau 20 Dressmaker b Renton DNB > Cathrine CURRIE Dau 18 Print field worker b Renton DNB Yes, this is the brother Alexander. His wife was Christina CRAWFORD. The other children of John CURRIE and Janet McKAY that also came to Cardross/Renton area of Dumbartonshire were Janet, Sarah and Agnes. By the way for those who haven't seen this before - someone has transcribed the 1861 census for Morvern. I found some of the Curries listed: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ked1/61ftwillcen1.html Thanks again Les. You truly are a wonderful resource for the members of this list.
