I have Stevenson family in the Kirkinner area, John Stevenson (Ireland 1768) and Letitia Somerville. Their daughter Mary is my 4x great grandmother. She married Laurence Craney. I haven't done much digging in this family yet.

Anyone on the list with STEVENSON connections?

Hi Patti, There's lots of information on your STEVENSONs. I have delved into some of it using census data from the IGI, FreeCEN and Ancestry.com. If you have an Ancestry.com subscription, or can get to a library with the service, you will be able to pursue this further. I did these transcriptions in a hurry, so missed noting some details. I did take a look at a some of the images though, and corrected transcription errors where I noticed them. (Ancestry.com census transcriptions are somewhat prone to error.) *IGI Parent Search*: Results for: Birth/Christening, Wigtown, Scotland, British Isles Father: James Stevenson, Mother: Barbara Thomson Exact Spelling: Off 1.
