Hi Hugh

I only had time to trawl for Sarah's birth on SP somewhere in Ayrshire between 1860 and 1867 and came up with 4 possibles.
Dalmellington 1863
Dalry 1861
Kirkmichael 1867
Tarbolton 1863

No credits left unfortunately so I couldn't follow her up but Dalry is in North Ayrshire nearest Irvine. The other three are south of the town of Ayr and close together.
Just a pity that the marriage is too late to be covered in IGI. It shows up on SP in Irvine.

Take your pick unless you get the actual record.

Roan/Rowan, Hastings, Sharp, Lapraik in Ayr & Kirkcudbrightshire.
Johnston, Reside, Lyle all over the place !
McGilvray(spelt 26 different ways)
Watson, Morton, Anderson, Tawse, in Kilrenny

Hello Hugh,

Strange seeing you up this end of the forum. :lol: I enjoy browsing round your many sea related links.

Does it not tell you on Hugh and Hannah's marriage entry who their parents were?

Kind regards,
Annette M

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk will give you the image of the marriage.

From there you'll quickly get back to one set of grandparents via the marriage of one of the parents of Hugh. Beyond that death register entries may help you, as could the IGI.

The other side isn't so easy, as it looks like they weren't regularly married. For Sarah's birth, look first at the 1891 census entry for Hugh and Sarah, and this will show you where she was born.
