I see you are researching the Gemmell family and so am I. I'm trying to find information on a David Gemmell who married Agnes Stirling. Agnes name was really Elizabeth. They were married in Buffalo, New York and then they were in Murphysboro, Tenn. Then in Wyoming, then they moved to Idaho and then moved to Riverside, California. I'm not at home but I think they married in 1902. They had four children. Could you tell me more about your Gemmell. David was a farmer and sheep herder. I do not know anything on where David was born. I don't even know where he died. I have been told by family members two stories. That he died of a heart attack on a train going to market with livestock. Then another family member said they thought he died tring to save his livestock in a blizzard and froze to death. I have found his familly in California buried in Roosevelt cemetery but he is not there. ----- Original Message ----- From: <RIVERRD@aol.com> To: <SCT-RENFREW-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2003 4:51 PM Subject: Re: [Renfrew] 1841 and 1851 Census - Gemmell > Yes, we went to Scotland and were able to find and meet "living" relatives! > They didn't know they had family in the States and my mom didn't know that she > had living relatives in Scotland.

Hi Sherri, I have one of your old emails on file 30 May 2000 when you were going to Scotland in 2 weeks. Did you find out anything over there. I thought you were the one with the website sorry. I transcribed a film for OPR West Kilbride AYR for all the Gemmells there. Have had relpies from that and found a whole line because of it. My lot moved to Paisley from West Kilbride. As they get nearer to the 20th century it gets harder , especially if you are not in Scotland. I have had 3 trips but my money has all gone now and am retired so broke constantly, very expensive hobby this.. Irene in New Zealand.

----- Original Message ----- From: Ray & Erin To: SCT-RENFREW-L-request@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, May 19, 2003 8:49 PM Subject: BURNS Dear listers One of the branches of my tree I am researching is the BURNS family who resided in Johnstone and Paisley from the 1860s onward. I have a reasonable amount of ancestory information. However, my g-grandmother Jeanie BURNS born in 1872 (married name BRYCE) died in 1903 shortly after my grandmother's birth. The family moved to Australia in 1910 and had no contact with the BURNS family thereafter and as my grandmother was very young at the time she never knew too much. Jeanie's parents were James BURNS (b @1840) & Jane ALLAN (b@1841). Her siblings were Margaret (b@1864), William (b@1866), Archibald (b@1870), Christina (b@1874), George (b@1878) and Agnes (b@1880). Is there anybody out there who knows anything about this particular family? Thanks Ray Chandler Ipswich QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA
