Dear Victoria, The Stewartry Museum in Kirkcudbright (curator David Devereux) has the 1841 census and apparently they'll do lookups. Otherwise, you can order the censuses through the LDS libraries.

Dear All: Here is a URL to a book at the Gutenberg Press. It covers in detail the History of the Clan Mackenzie but also relates to the activities from other surrounding Clans. Gutenberg Press has other books on Scottish History that have been scanned in and available as well Thanks to Alastair McIntryre of Elecric Scotland for the reference. http://www.electricscotland.com/etexts/mcknz10.txt Best Regards John A Hansen

Hi, I am new to this list. I am looking for parents, siblings, relatives and/or any information about RobertPartin and his wife Margarett Hayle Partin. I have read that they are of Scottish background, but were born in England in 1587/1588; marriage place and date unknown. Robert Partin left for English colonies on the ship Blessing in 1609; Margarett Hayle Partin followed on the ship George in1617. A servant, Thomas Hale came with Margaret when she sailed. I am not sure if he is related with a variation in spelling or just a similar surname. This is the first Robert PARTIN to settle in the English colonies. The family is well documented after Robert and Margarette settled in US. I have that information. I am interested in information on this family and other 's with same surname BEFORE saling and settlement in the American colonies. I have searched Ancestry.com and Scots and English Origins.net and with some kind help have England's 2001 Electoral Directory listing on all Parton, Partin and Hayle surnames and addresses. The information found in LDS data is information on the family after they settled in the American colonies. Any information, clues or knowledge of other's who have searched PARTIN, PARTON, and HAYLE surnames before 1609 and in locations other than the United States would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Is there anyone who can help me with a look up for 1841 and 1851 census please. I am looking for Gordon and Janet JOHNSTON. Married in parish of Kirkcudbright in 1827 and one known child, Thomas JOHNSTON born 1838 in Girthon. I know it's likely that there were other children, but can't find any on the IGI. Not sure where else to look. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated!! Thanks. Victoria Germain

Hi Reposting interests after a time away. I am interested in the family of Thomas JOHNSTON (b1838, Gatehouse) and GRACE RIDDICK (b1845, Gatehouse). (Parents were Gordon JOHNSTONE/Janet EWINS and James RIDDICK/ Elizabeth TEMPLETON) Children: Jessie - b1861, Gatehouse Elizabeth, b1865, Gatehouse Margaret, b1867, Gatehouse Joanna - b1869, Gatehouse David - b1871, Gatehouse Alexander - b1873, Gatehouse Agnes - b 1874, Gatehouse Mary - b1875, Gatehouse Gordon - b1880, Gatehouse Jessie possibly married William KERR. Yet to verify that. Possibly lived in Dalry. Agnes is my link and married John TAIT in 1892 in Glasgow. If you are connected in any way I would love to hear from you and pass on more info. Thanks Victoria Germain (UK)

Looking for information on both the Curran and Gormaly families who lived in the Bridge of Dee/Dalbeattie area around 1830. Some of the familes came to Canada together in around 1850. Would love to share info Bernie Quigley

Does anyone have access to this. I found my relative John Rigg in the free look up of the 1841 Census at Bank Vale District Port Phillip Page No 79 Reel No 2509 Return No 40 Thanks Pat Mott AUSTRALIA

Found the following data on the IGI and the Buittle, KKD website (address below). IGI James HOOD Sex: M Marriage(s): Spouse: Marion FALLS Marriage: 3 Feb 1809 Buittle, Kirkcudbright, Scotland OPR 3-Feb 1809 James Hood (Corbietoun) married Marian Falls (Buittle Mains) http://www.buittle.freeserve.co.uk/ I didn't find any other Hood or Falls entries in Buittle. There were marriages for a John and William Hood in Dumfries, Dumfrieshire in the mid-1830's. But there seems to have been an earlier Hood family in the area. The 1881 census shows a James Hood born abt 1805 in Kirkgunzeon, but nothing for Scotland for James or William with the correct birth year. As for the location of Dykeside and Milncroft, go to the map site below. The lower right map quarter shows a long hill formation with two smaller ones at the north end. Go west from the southern most small hill, past another small hill to the flat area. Click there and follow the directions at the top of the screen for zooming (or just keep clicking on the area) and panning. This is modern Kirkgunzeon area of the old Kirkgunzeon Parish. You will see Dykeside marked and just northerly of that on a spur is marked a Mill. http://www.nls.uk/digitallibrary/map/early/637.html

Hi Listers I have just received some information which will assist Australian members. If someone rings up saying they are a technician and are testing your line - be careful If they ask you to press 90# - DONT. This will give them access to your telephone and they can use it for long distance calls etc. A lot of this scam is coming from the prisons. This information has come from a reliable family member. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. Regards to everyone. Pat Australia

I am looking for members of the Gibson family in the vicinity of Crossmichael in the middle to late 1700s. Can anyone help me? David

Looking for information on the children of James Hood and May Falls as follows: John 11/10./1812, William 29/7/1815 & Margaret 6/5/1817, also does anyone know where Dykeside and Milncroft are, I think they may have been small farms in the Kirkgunzeon area in the early 1800s. cynthia

Does anyone know how I can trace my ancestors who travelled to Australia in 1840 ? Is there a site that lists passengers from Scotland to Australia. My family are John Rigg and wife Isabella They settled in Donnybrook Victoria and arrived here around 1840 after marrying in Scotland 10/4/1838. John Rigg was the son of James Rigg of "Highbanks" Many thanks Pat AUSTRALIA

Greetings, I would just like to thank members of the list for the prompt and useful information that they sent in answer to my request, what a great list.I now feel that I have a few directions to point at. Thank you David, Ann and Bob for your interest and help, Sincerely, Daphne

Hi everyone I am not sure what the next census is after 1841 but could someone look-up "Highbanks". The Rigg family were living there in the 1841 Census. Many Thanks Pat AUSTRALIA

Can anyone look up the Census for Highbanks at Kirkcudbright for me for the Rigg family. Both parents James and Grace Taggart died 1841 and 1837 but perhaps the family still lived there. The RIGG Children were : Sarah Margaret Mary Kathrine John (came to Australia in 1840) Anna Grace William Also the John McTaggart (Taggart) and wife Sarrah who lived in Borgue (married 1758 Borgue) - I have no address but all the children were born in Borgue. It is though wife Sarrah Rain came from Wigtown ? The McTagart/Rain children were David John Nicholas Grizzel Thomas Much appreciated. Pat Australia
