Hi Valerie, Do you have a record of any Douglas or Montgomery in the Yetholm area 1800`s ? Nan nancy-scholz@webtv.net Nan@webtv.net

Hello I am researching the following names in the borders and Rox area Winter(s) - Yetholm and Town Yetholm - in particular Isaac Winter and his wife Isabella Richardson late 18th and early 19th century - daughters and sons including Jane Winter who married into family below Romaines/Romains/Romanis etc - Joseph Romaines (spelled variously) father William mother ?Isabella? - married Jane Winter in 184o's and lived all over the place including Gateshead Co Durham, Kirknewton area particularly Kilham and Kirk Yetholm. I have details of the Romanis family up till the 1900 mark (ish) but not much on the Winter family - just some educated guesses so far. Love to hear from any of you out there Cheers Mandy Buchanan Gateshead

I have a bit of a puzzle. Going over the http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/index. I found one of the family married in Glasgow 1897, she went to Australia about 1910 she re- married over there, on her marriage certificate she claims her husband as he deserted her xxyrs ago. I find her first husband died in 1945 in Glasgow, on his death certificate it has him down as still being married to her. Is it possible to find out if she divorced him in Australia before she re-married & would there be any documents sent over to Glasgow to her first husband. Bob

Hello, I want to thank all who responded to my queries about Agnes Elliot. Due to the responses I have concluded that she was most probably the daughter of the 2nd Sir Gilbert of Minto and sister of the 3rd. Also, I should have mentioned that she married Robert Thompson. Thank you all again for your help. Darlene Miller

Hi Judy, Perhaps what you describe is something of a local, even Border trait. To this day and much to the annoyance of my wife, family, friends and acquaintanes I will never, ever, accept the 'obvious' explanation for anything. My grand-mother used to say it was the old 'Reiver' way. It is well documented that they could talk their way out of most things, note famously 'Johnnie Armstrong o' Gilnockie'. Regards Roy P.S. I couldn't stand physics either. :-) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy Dawe" <dawejudy@charter.net> To: <SCT-ROXBURGH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 9:19 PM Subject: Re: [SCT-ROX] RELATIONSHIPS. > Thanks, BJ, and all the other who have aided in my understand of > Relationships.

Thanks, BJ, and all the other who have aided in my understand of Relationships. Your explanation of "removed" cleared up some things for me. Jeffery Davidson send a URL (http://www.heirsearch.com/table.htm) which helped me with the overall picture. Many of you did send a URL, but sometimes I look, and don't understand. I'm a VERY visual person; I need to see the picture. I've saved all of the URL's that I've received and am building a file of them. I had the same problem when I took physics.

I didn't do any better in college although I knew better and told myself I would accept the facts and a summer course, no less. What can I say? I'm not quite a dumb blonde; wrong color hair. jld

I have received a number of emails in response to my query re the SHIPLEY family and the 1851 census etc but they all went to my junk mail folder and they have been deleted - drat it! Would it be possible for those kind people who responded to send me a copy of their emails? I am very grateful for the replies and unhappy to have lost them - sorry to be a nuisance. Thanks to all who replied Helen McDiarmid
