" They Came from Dumfries"
« on: Sunday 12 November 06 23:09 UTC (UK) »
     
       Having a frustraying time researching my HISLOP / HYSLOP forbears. I have traced back to this couple , Richard Hislop (a blacksmith in Glasgow from about 1800 onwards ) and his wife Isabella Hardie.
       Her 1855 death cert . states that she was from Falkirk , born circa 1777 but of course  , Richard was deceased before official records were required.
       An aunt told us that the Hislops "came from Dumfries" , so if anyone has a Richard Hyslop born circa  1775in their tree , I would love to hear from you.
        Richard and Isabella`s first son was John, so if the naming pattern was adhered to, Richard`s father in Dumfries could have been John Hyslop - but beware of red herrings!
           Hope to hear from another Hislop researcher, Regards, Thommoje
