My ancestors are William and Catherine Harkness (nee Hamilton) from Leswalt. William was born in 1813 and worked at Calhame House, Logan Mains in the parish of Kirkmaiden. His son Robert born 1840 was one of my ggg grandfathers.
I would love to hear from anyone who is related to this family or may have information about them. I have census returns back to 1841.
Best wishes Mercel
