Hello
You kindly replied to a request I posted on the 9th November regarding Roxburgh's in Galston. I have finally managed to work out that the John Galston (b1826 d 1897) is probably a branch of my tree! He seems to be the elder brother of my gg granddad. I have his baptism as 11/9/1826 so it seems to tie in. Was there any other info? His parents were John and Agnes (born Gebbie) and his siblings were Grizel, Jean, Elisabeth and James

 Thanks very much for the information. The other details you found may well be related as well. I'm rather new to all this and it takes me a while to catch up and tie all the information together! I may well contact you again as it dawns on me where they fit in!
Thanks once again

Could you look for an Andrew Young in Kilmarus?

I belive he was buried about 1835.  His wife was Margaret Howie Young who he married on July 11, 1760 in Kilmarus.  I belive she was born about 1739.  Thank you very much!- kristin

Hi, Bob,
Would much appreciate if you can tell me if there are any records of Fairs buried in the Kilmarnock to Galston area.

Particularly the family of Thomas Fair who was killed in a mining accident in Galston in 27 Sep 1882.

The Fair family moved from Kilmarnock ~1850 through Crougar to Galston.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim
      There are no Fair/s gravestone inscriptions in the book of Kilmarnock and Loudoun Monumental inscriptions pre 1855.  Sorry I could't help

Thanks, Bob,
I  have an email address and name for burial lookups by North Ayrshire Council. However they have a restriction on the years available to them too.

Trystan replied to my query showing use of the "additional options" button. fo attaching a n image.
So here goes with the details of the first response Isabella Sharp.
This saves transcription errors. There are enough of them in the CD!!

I will get to the others later.
