Hi everyone. I said last night that I had details of 3 HOGG families. Here they are: Henry DUNCAN and his wife Irene HOGG (may be Jean rather than Irene though) had a son William, born 7 August 1815. No other details about them. William HOGG, Collier, Newtown, marxried Jane Duncan of Gladsmuire on 15 Oct 1824 no other details James Duncan, Collier, Newtown, married Jane HOGG of Gladsmuir on 22 March 1826. Their children with their birth dates are: William Duncan 26 Aug 1827 Jane Duncan 5 Nov 1829 John Duncan 25 May 1832 James Duncan 2 Jul 1834 Isabella Duncan 1 Jul 1838 John Duncan 6 Sept 1840 (can we assume the first John died?) George Duncan 20 Dec 1842 That's all I have on my index cards. I can probably chase down the film number if anyone required it. Please note that it's NEWTOWN above not Newton. It was a village just outside Pencaitland, on the road to Macmerry. It used to be a thriving town of colliers, now it's just 2 cottages in the middle of nowhere! The DUNCANs are the line I'm following, I have a George Duncan, born 1810 (parents James Duncan & Maitland Duncan). George married Catherine Mackay of Boggs in Pencaitland in Nov 1836. I don't know anything much about Catherine. George and Catherine had 10 children, of which my GGGgrandfather Hugh was one. Maitland Duncan's parents were Francis Duncan and Clementina Currie/Curry - who came from Airth in Stirling. Always happy to meet new 'cousins' Fiona in Wellington, New Zealand, where the weather is fining up now that we're in Autumn!
