It must still be working as I received your message. I don't think there is much activity though.

Hi Roy Its quite sad to hear of all these places missing or disused. And looking at the map of Langholm, I suppose "Staplegortown" is Staple Gordon, marked as "Church - remains of" near Langholm. To change the subject a bit, I was researching a relative, William Irving of Longtown, who was a portrait painter. He exhibited four paintings in the Carlisle Exhibition of 1824: 30. Portrait of W Brown Esq. Hawick 56. Portrait of Alexander Brown, Esq. Orchard, Roxburghshire 101. Portrait of Mrs

not sure still working on it. Late 1800's I believe were there certain ports they came into then? If so is there port records I could check?

5. [W-MAR] PORTEOUS/PORTEUS emigration [1]
Posting my interest. I am studying the history and migration of the PORTEOUS and PORTEUS families (as well as other variant spellings, such as PORTAS, PORTESS, PORTIS, PORTICE, PORTUS - amongst many others). I'm researching the history and spread of the above names - especially the migration of members of any branches of this formerly small Borders family from southern Scotland - initially to northern England and Ireland, then to the US and Canada - and later to the former British colonies of New Ze

This query which I just posted had a major error-- Elizabeth Gill married Daniel Skelton 5 April 1827, Kirkbride, not 1877 as in the previous post. If I get my facts straight, I might get some good replies. With apologies, Jacqueline > > Hi All, > I am still trying to pin down my Elizabeth Gill and her mother, probably > Jemima Gill.

10. [W-MAR] Wheel Causeway aka Whele Causey [1]
I thought that perhaps this piece from SCT-ROX list might be of interest? For example the Rev James Snadden writes in his 'History of Liddesdale': "The usual explanation of the name 'Wheelrig' is that it was so called because it was traversed by the old Roman road, the only road, they say for wheeled traffic. This is rather crude and unscientific. The Anglo-Saxon word for a sping is Cyle, with the initial letter pronounced hard, and for a collection from a spring, Quelle. The spring thus gave the rig its

Hi Roy I've never heard of either Wheel or Bells churches, can you give us any more information about them? I did find a reference to another stray church register, in the Carlisle Journal in 1826: "February 18th 1826 Church Registers We have lately seen an interesting church register in the possession of Thomas Allan, one of the workmen at Messrs Dalton and Bell9s foundry in Carlisle. We understand he is the lineal descendant of the Rev Robert Allan, who officiated as Episcopal churchman in the parish o

Hi All, I am still trying to pin down my Elizabeth Gill and her mother, probably Jemima Gill. Here is what I have. Jemima Gill gave birth in the St. Mary's Workhouse, Carlisle, on 28 Mar 1806, to Elizabeth Gill, illegitimate, no father given. The only other thing I can find that might possibly fit Jemima is a questionable birth in Whitehaven abt. 1795, That would make her about 11 years old when Elizabeth was born. Possible. Elizabeth Gill m. Daniel Skelton 5 April 1877 in Kirkbride. They had four child

Hi Bridget, Bell's Kirk or Bell's Chapel stood at NY 653 951 and was evidently at one time part of a 'village' it is recorded in various documents including the grant to William the Lion. Warburton notes it in the late eighteenth century and a number of papers record the existence of graves as recently as the nineteenth century, however nothing now remains. Wheel Kirk or Wheel Chapel is recorded as having given hospitality to Edward I of England. A small fragment of carved stone is preserved in Wilton Mu

Hi List, I had lost my Internet connection for a couple of weeks and finally got back on . By an error that I did, I deleted all my folders and address book. Now that I have the connection again I still have no address book. Would any one out there have the address of "Waugh" I think that is how he spelled his name. Sorry I don't remember what his first name is. I am researching the "BURNIE'S". He had sent to me information that I had placed in a folder and you know the rest of the story so......i
