Although I can't find the message, someone recently posted an enquiry concerning CAIRD. I have an ancestor in my family - John CAIRD born about 1727 in Kirkbean, Kirkcudbright who married Jannet CUTHBERT on 28 June 1754 in Dumdries.

John was a hammerman (blacksmith) although according to my gg grandfather he was at one time the publican of the "Brown Cow" in Dalbeattie.

John and Jannet had 12 children, all born in Dumfries - Mary b.1755, Jane b.1759, Jannet b.1761, Margaret b.1763, Sarah (my gx4 grandmother) b.1765, Isabel b.1767, William b.1768, Adam b.1769, Mary b.1770, William b.1771, John b.1772, James b.1775.

Any connections ?

Cheers,
John Burnet, Wellington, N.Z.
