Hi, I am trying to find information on a Megauchen (or variants) family. George Megauchen born Ireland 1910c moved to Port Glasgow & had a joinery business "The Port Glasgow Progressive Joinery Business". Probably 1940-1950c. He was also involved setting up a Church Mission in Port Glasgow. Anyone have any information? Thanks Lorraine

I've been using this site lately, (some listers maybe aware of it) at www.kuijsten.de/navigator/ It will come up on the main page with ticks in little boxes, if you click on ticks, it will remove them, I have had success with the GeneaNet one. Try and do one page at a time, you may find trees on line. If you are not on broadband, they might take time to load. Jenelle.

Found the following site through google for scottish research, might be useful. Go to link below.

Dear Sir, Can you arrange to have my messages sent to me in MIMIE. Thanking you, Norman Woods.,

Hi Suzie, I lived in Renfrew for my first 23 years. Knockhill is near the Paisley Border. In 1841 it certainly would be farmland or woods. Marjory the daughter of King Robert Bruce died there about 1318 after falling from a horse. There was a castle there about that time. JOHN SHAW 1 REDWING STREET BROWNS BAY AUCKLAND NZ.

Hello Lorraine, I have not checked the 1851 Census yet for Scotland. I'm with ancestry.com, and they only have the 1841 census. Thank you so much for the sites you emailed. I will be checking them out tonight. Yes, it can be "tricky" using the IGI when info is submitted by LDS members. I prefer original records, but the members submissions may be a helpful clue. Oftentimes they do submit information they have gathered from original records. It is exciting that the LDS are digitalizing all the records they have at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. I hope I am alive in ten years when they expect to have them all online and available for free to researchers. That should be great. Thanks again, Suzie

Hello John Thanks for sharing that information. I'm guessing that it is the only Knock in Renfrew. Have a great day. Suzie

Dear Suzie, Knock seems to be between the towns of Paisley and Renfrew. If you go to oldmaps and open up a map of Renfrew (town) you'll see it. A Google search also gives you some information. I'm sure it must be a name of Gaelic origin as there's a Knock in Ireland too. Regards, Jeanette. ---- GRANT SUE SABIN <[email protected]> wrote: > My ancestors, Robt.

Hi Suzie, A little bit about Knocks found at http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/RFW/Renfrew/ I noticed on the IGI that the information on Robert has been submitted by an LDS member. Tricky. As some of the children had middle names, perhaps you could search for other births in Angus with the same middle names just maybe get a clue http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/ScotlandMiddleNamesIGI.h tm Was Robert alive for the 1851 census?

Hello friends, We have had no progress in finding out more about the following parents in 30 years. We have found much info on some of their sons, however. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. My ancestors are Robert OGILVIE, born abt. 1781, possibly at Angus. He married Jean GORDON, (b. abt. 1784 at Angus, parents: James GORDON and Rachel MACGREGOR.. They married 7 Mar 1808 at Dundee. The marriage is also recorded March 6 1808 at Longforgan, Perth. By posting the following information, I am hoping someone will give me guidance of where I can look for more information. Are there marriage and burial records for Renfrewshire online?

I have found these three William Black births on LDS microfilm 1041088 for Abbey (Paisley,Scotland.) 1. William ,born 29 July/Aug.1726 to John Black and his wife,Elizabeth Cochran. 2. William, born 6 October 1728 to William Black, wife not listed. 3. William, born 8 July 1729 to James Black and his wife, Agnes Thomson. Two questions: 1. Can anyone provide proof that a specific one of these married Elizabeth Stocks, and later brought his family to the Maritimes in Canada? 2. Can anyone prove William's lines back before any of the parents listed in 1,2 or 3 above. Many thanks, Jim Wilman

I have just found my gr gr Charles Robin on a passenger list. The family just below him is Sharpe, headed by Thomas and Isabella, Janet, Thomas, and infant. The ship is Hibernia, October 1865. My sisters and myself were just going through old photo albums and my Charles is shown greeting a Bertha Sharp. So, when I found the passenger list, I am sure Chas Robin is mine. Now to find out if the Sharps are just shipmates or relatives. Does this ring any bells with you Sharps mention in the last Digest? Gail Robin Colmer
