Hi, Here's my 'Brick Wall'. My Brown family trail is now at Kincardine. I'm searching for Birth details of my Gr.Gr.Grandfather William Brown. I have quite a lot of details on him. He married Margaret Arbuckle, at Gorbals, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland in 1819, so I guess he would have been born c. 1790-1800. William and Margaret had a large family. He married Grace McMurray, at Rutherglen, Lanarkshire, Scotland in 1851. I have him and his family on the 1851 Census, living in Rutherglen, Lanarkshire, Scotland. According to the details given on the Census, he was 46, and his birth place was Perthshire, Dunnottar. This is obviously a mistake, and should have been Kincardineshire, Dunnottar, also the age given is suspect. I've found his Death details, and these seem to confuse things even more. He died in 1880, aged 69, at Rutherglen, Lanarkshire, Scotland. The informant, his son John Brown. Obviously the sums don't add up. The Parent details given add more confusion, Father, James Brown, Engine Keeper, Mother, not given. I wonder if William's son has made it up, or maybe he just didn't know. The Scottish naming pattern is evident all through my family, from myself back to William, where I think I've hit a brick wall. I had been expecting his father to be William also. Have any fellow Listers come across this William Brown..?? Do you know of any site that I can visit where I can get more details about families in Kincardineshire..?? Best regards, Alex Brown
