9. Re: [WIG] Bryde in 1841 [0.982183]
DON, That makes perfect sense. Thanks to you and Crawford for the history lessons. I guess it never occured to me how close Wigtownshire is to Ireland. I know that my gg grandmother is listed in one census here as being Irish. Our best information is that it was an error. But I do realize that in many American minds the Scots and Irish are nearly the same.

15. [WIG] SKIMMING - GLENLUCE [0.982183]
I have now traced my elusive William Skimming to Glenluce and believe he was the son of Alexander SKimming and Grizel McAlmond/McCamond. However I can still not find his death. William married Grizel Williamson daughter of Fergus Williamson of Airyhemming - she died in Glenluce in 1882 aged 91. William seems to be missing at census times - their youngest child was born 1832! If anyone has any clues it would be much appreciated. I was at Register House in Edinburgh yesterday and I was lucky enough to

It is a town in parish Mochrum, OS map coords are NX3343 and in 1971 there were 517 persons living in 186 houses. Not what I would call a "town" but in this craft it's best not to dispute sources. My source, HMSO Stationery Office. Cheers......... ALISTAIR

I wonder if anyone on this list has ancestors who joined the Royal Scots Regiment of Foot (don't have the number in front of me)? I'd love to know where they signed up and served during the years about 1800-1820. I have contacted the regimental headquarters in Edinburgh and received some excellent information on the regiment. It would be intersting to know if anyone else has gone down that path in terms of research. Regards. Patti

23. Re: [WIG] Bryde in 1841 [0.982183]
Hi Ray, I suspect that the most likely answer to one half of your question will be found in Michigan's history. There were usually two sides to the question ---- why did they leave ---- why did they go where they went ---- and quite often not very much related. My gg father left Wigtownshire in about 1851 and went to Ayrshire, a very much shorter hop! But the reason for leaving may well have been the same. After the great famine in Ireland in the late 1840s, many Irish folks came to Wigtownshire (it was j

Thank you for your kind comments Dan, We can always rely on the Washington Post, can't we? I showed the article to "the Oracle" he who knows all there is to know about curling. ( ie, hubby) very critical he is. He seemed pleased but pointed out that Hammy was the skip of the GB mens team, not the coach, that honour goes to Mike Hay. Hammy's team who suffered an humiliating 7th place vows to be back trying again for the next Olympics, "it's not always about winning, I have made a lot of tremendous friends
