1. Re: [WIG] Sheuchan Mill Stranraer/Leswalt [1]
Jim, A perusal of the 1841 Census Booklet indicates that "Sheuchan Mill" seems to be a name for an area rather than just a mill. One of the "Sheuchan Mill enumeration district listings followed by the page number" is identical in a reference to a "Sheuchan Parks enumeration district and page number" so they are definitely adjoining areas. There are approximately 50 people living there at the time of the 1841 Census ranging in ages from 3 months to 78 years. Occupations are listed as Blacksmith, Joiner, M

Hello Can I first off apologise for those of you who receive this message more than once, because of the nature of my request I have used more than one list. I am attempting to sit university papers at a more than mature age, (trying to catch up with my children and grandchildren). One of these papers deals with the industrial and agricultural revolution in Europe in general, and Britain in particular. A part of the knowledge that I am seeking to absorb is based on the ages, which people married, conceive

Hello Wayne The only David Hannay residing in Kirkcowan in 1841 was aged 3, whereas yours would be 61(ish). There is no Susan at all and none of the children seem to be there or the Grandparents, John and Susan. Not in Mochrum either, or Stoneykirk, Kirkinner or Garlieston village, Glenluce village, Old Luce, Newton Stewart, Whithorn, Sorbie, Glasserton or Wigtown.

8. [WIG] Death Extract [1]
Hi listers Just received the death certificate of my great grandfather James Henry Woodhouse. He died 20 Oct 1881 at the Royal Infirmary Glasgow, cause was a "compound fracture of the jaw and skull". It was registered by his wife Catherine Barclay the following day 21st. What is the difference between a fracture and a compound fracture? James was a docker, could this have been the result of an accident at work? Could this event be recorded in a local newspaper, does anybody know the local newspaper
9. [WIG] Lookup - Monumental Inscriptions - MCCARGO [1]
Hello again list, I was wondering if anyone having the Kirkmaiden or Stoneykirk MI's could check to see if there are any McCargo's listed. I have Isabella (McCargo) McWhirter but am wondering if any of her siblings/parents may be listed. Her parents were John McCargo and Margaret Baillie. Isabella was born approx. 1778 and died 1872, age 94. Monumental Inscriptions sometimes hold the key to generations. Thanks, Hope

12. [WIG] McCreadie with McLellan or McCulloch [1]
Hello, I have a proven ancestor, John McCREADIE who married Isobel KELLY at Kirkstyle, Old Luce in 1805. In trying to establish the parents of John, the most likely candidates - found on Scots Origins index are:- James McCREDIE and Margaret McLELLAN - with a son John b. 1779 Old Luce or James McCREDIE and Jean McCULLOCH - son John b 1776 in Stranraer. The names of John and Isobel's children seem to favour McCREDIE/McLELLAN however I am finding it difficult to prove. I would appreciate hearing from any

Hi Alison, they play for the Strathcona Cup. Every 10 years a Scottish team go over to Canada and every 10 years the Canadians come over to Scotland. (In other words every 5 years there is a match) The Strathcona Cup itself never leaves these shores, even tho' Canada win. They just take the glory home with them. There will be records if you really wanted to know, at the Royal Caledonian Curling Club headquarters at Ingleston, Edinburgh. They don't play under the clan titles now tho, but they have a unif
18. [WIG] DOUGLAS [1]
Good Evening Listers, At some time before 1841, probably in Sorbie, but poss. in Wigtown, a child by the name of Alexander DOUGLAS died. He was born in 1831 in Wigtown to parents Thomas DOUGLAS and May (Marion) BUTLER DOUGLAS. I would love to locate evidence of his death if SKS can find an MI for him. The elements of this family dispersed around the world so you will not find a large family monument. Thank-you. Malcolm

Thanks for all the work Diana, I have that article on G Rochester as it mentioned the 'old burial ground' I assumed he'd be listed in the P/P memorials booklet, likewise William's headstone is large and ornate so the Wither family was reasonably substantial in the area. They have been in the area since at least 1684. John and Susan had at least 7 children, William and Mary Biggam another 7 and Susan seems to have had 'relationships' with another 3 children resulting so you would expect far more headstones t

Hi Judy, Yesterday, I wrote: 1801 / Rankin / John and Mary Cluky - Married by E?. Davidson Minr. of Whithorn at Whithorn Dec 22d. The "E?" was not easily read, but on reflection, it was probably meant to be "Dr", or perhaps "Dr I". The minister in question had to be the Reverend Dr Isaac Davidson. Hi son, Elliot William Davidson, (or his session clerk), would have made that entry in the Sorbie register, as he was the minister of Sorbie at the time. Bruce
