Hello Meg,

thanks for the info.  I have most of what you found.  I am sure the 1841 and 1851 census are the same family, just the 1841 ages for William and for Mary ar off for some reason.  The age for Margaret is okay - I have her marriage, death, etc.  they also had a son John born 1822 (he is my direct link), and I have all his information.  I am just having a difficult time going back further.  I know his parents are this William and Mary (Carlaw) Gray.  I will try the link you listed and see if I can find more.

thanks so much for the into.

Hello Joanne,

I think that William Gray's parents were John Gray and Margaret Walker he was christened 25/5/1780 in Livingston.  I can't find a birth for Mary Carlaw though.

cheers ....  Meg

Hi Meg.

I have Mary Carlaw being bor in 1790 to John Carlaw and Margaret Walker.  I have John Carlaw and Margaret Walker married 12/1/1783.  They had children Margaret Carlawborn 1784, GeorgeCarlaw born 1786, James Carlaw born 1787, Mary Carlaw born 1790, and Euphan Carlaw born 1793.  It seems strange that William Grays parents would be the same: John Gray and Margaret Walker?  I will look for the christening that you have and see - strangers things have happened!.  I have William Gray's birth as being in Livingston about 1778, so this seems to match. 

Thanks Meg,

Joanne

Hi Jean Jeanie,
Do you have an MI for an Isabella Gardner m/s Laing, born Rafford, Elginshire 14/3/1795. She married John Matthew Gardner 1830 in Bo'ness.
In 1841 and 1851 they had a Pub on North Street, Bo'ness but both are gone by 1861.
Regards, Alastair
I have extensive information about Isabella and John Matthew if you would like
