Gill -

What are the names of their children - in birth order.

I've been looking through the BIVRI, which lists two:

26 April 1811, Girthon, Margaret, d/o Thomas Maben and Agnes Grierson

23 Sept 1818, now in Kirkcudbright, Esther, d/o Thomas Maybone and Agnes Grierson

both are births rather than baptisms.

I only have the ones that you've noted and

Thomas 11/03/1821

William 29/09/1823

and my 3x times great grandmother sometime around 1820 - Marion Maban

I think there were Mabans around the Parton area too

Thanks

Just a thought -

Because of the long gap - Napoleonic Wars. There's a list somewhere on the web of D & G men who served and they're on the Nat Archive site.

So we have:

1810 - marriage - Girthon
1811 - Margaret - Girthon
1818 - Esther - Kirkcudbright
1819/20 -Marion - ? Kircudbright
1821 - Thomas - ? Kirkcudbright
1823 - William - ? Kirkcudbright.

Just using a bit of variation from the Scottish Naming Patterns -

Margaret - an important local personage/family member or Thomas' mother
Esther - Agnes' mother
Marion - ? poss Thomas' mother
Thomas and William - either fathers?

This is all conjecture  Undecided

I'll have a look at Parton - but then you've got Crossmichael, Balmaclellan and Kelton/Castle Douglas as well  Sad

I did wonder why the long gap, not even thinking of Nap. Wars. Thank you for the hint. I'll have a look on the N.Archives catalogue.

You've done alot for me and I'm very greatful.

Thanks very much
