My gggrandfather is Alex. and the record of his birth is nowhere to be found either. I have his birth year from death records. I would think this is what happened with David as well. Also Ann's name is posing some confusion as she is listed as Susan in 1881 census and marriage records, married name Petrie. I don't know the reason of the different name. Hope this helps - let me know.PG

Hello Mike, Thanks for your mail. Unfortunately I have no ancestors in America. My lot came to New Zealand from Scotland and England. In saying that there are cousins of my gg grandparents that I am unable to locate! But your James in 1829 is to early for me. I will keep working at it.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Jarvis Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AgC.2ACI/1249.1 Message Board Post: Dear Allison, I read your query with great interest. My Jarvis family lived in Marykirk around the time you mention. I am researching a Herbert M.E. Jarvis who, in the 1881 census of Scotland is recorded as living with his Grandmother, Elizabeth Jarvis and his aunt, also Elizabeth Jarvis in Marykirk He is recorded as having been born in London, Middlesex and at census was aged 12 years. He is listed with two brothers and one sister. They are Charles S. Jarvis, Frank S. Jarvis and Maggie E. Jarvis. Herbert is the eldest. I have the PRO index and entry numbers to retreive his birth certificate but haven't yet done so. There were two davids born to Elizabeth. One was born in 1837 and another born in 1840. I have no idea who the father is but strongly suspect that it wold be David. If any of this rings a bell, call me.

In the 1881 census the following children are listed as living with their grandmother Elizabeth (nee SMITH) MACKIE at Upper West Town, Kinneff & Catterline, Kincardine. William COWIE age 4 G Son Kinneff, Kincardine. Susan MACKIE age 8 G Dau Benholm, Kincardine, Scholar Edward Mc ALUM age 2 G Son Kinneff, Kincardine. Dose anyone have any connection and knowledge of these children? Kim New South Wales Australia
