Hi List Is there a reason I have not received any messages for days? Faith

Hi All, Where did you all go? Will you come back? Have I offended you all? Has someone else? More seriously has anyone heard anything of Alison DeCaen, she left the list a few weeks ago which was not in itself unusual, but now her e-mail account appears to be closed down. Has anyone been in contact? Regards Roy

I am going through saved Clendenin emails. I was speaking of the son of William who went to Ireland in 1745ish we think. Now the problem exists that there are 2 Williams-one who was in Ireland and one who came there ... so have 2 different wives.. we thought that one guy married twice. Charles and several brothers came to America and settled Charleston, WV - well, Virginia at the time. We've touched base since this email and you sent me your family tree beginning in 1715 with an Adam-this goes on back to Adam Glendonwyn does it? Black Douglas connection and Robert the Bruce?

Have been reading this thread with great interest. I have been trying to find Hilenor Beattie for years with no success -- but I do have a Nelly Beattie (nee Renwick) in Kirndean. Could she be my Hilenor???? Peter NZ

Peter, It's real possible this is your Nelly, as I have an Eleanore Armstrong Rutherford, who went by the name of Helen.

It would be great if you could find out more about Glendennings/Clendenin. I am reading The Steel Bonnets by George MacDonald Fraser. The Johnstones, Elliots.Armstrongs, Grahams all involved in the borders-warring and reiving. Georganne Clendenin Cumming, GA

Hello; Mossburnforsd is a camping and caravan park just off the A68 Newcastle to Edinburgh Road, south of Jedburgh, near Camptown. As has been said there are few houses there, so I would not call it a village. My ancestors lived near there at Kersheugh, near to Fernirehirst Castle. How it came to be called Mossburnford I do not know but therew is a ford there over the River Jed.

No but I guess there is a chance the great man is in the 1881 census! It might well show how many people he employed.

Judy, On the 1851 census there were 8 families living there plus one at the sawmill. I can let you have details if you want. Pat

Suzi, According to my 1860ish Ordnance survey map of the area, Mossburnford had about four buildings in it. Thus it is a very tiny hamlet at best. I expect to be in the area next spring.

It is a small settlement just down the Jed from Jedburgh itself. There is a caravan park there now and a couple of old houses on the other side of the water. Not much else as far as I know but I stand to be corrected. Perhaps there were more houses there once. I am pretty sure there are pics of the old houses somewhere, possibly on the web - it was a mill or a woodcutters or something like that.

Hi everyone Looking for descendant information on the following family. John CARMICHAEL (s/o Robert CARMICHAEL & Helen Archibald HENDERSON) married Mary St. Clair MACDOUGALL in 1884 in Coldstream, Scotland. They had: Ethel & Edith1886 Evelyn St Clair 1892 John St Clair Hyndford 1894 Evelyn married a Henry Arthur SMITH July 28, 1931 in Coldstream. John Hyndford Carmichael served in India, from 1919 until 1923 as a Lt. and Captain, who was for a while the Aide-de-Camp to the Governor of Bombay. This John served until 1935 when he retired on the 4th April. This family lived in Bellevue and had a summer home in Spittal. Mary St. Clair CARMICHAEL was the sister to my great great grandmother Katherine Robertson MacDOUGALL. I would love to find out if there are any descendants from this family. Thank you Trish LEWIS Nova Scotia Canada
