Looking for information on Robert Bryce born c1811 at Airdrie. He married Agness Jinkin at St Ninian in 1828 and the 1851 census lists them at St Ninian as
Agness Bryce m. Robert b.1811 St. Ninian, Stirling wife
David Bryce b.1850 Govan Lanark son
James Bryce b.1836 St. Ninian, Stirling,son
John Bryce b.1831 St. Ninian, Stirling, son
Margaret Bryce b. 1846 St. Ninian, Stirling, son
Robert Bryce b.1810 Andrie, Lanark, Head
Robert Bryce b.1834 St. Ninian, Stirling, son
William Bryce b. 1841 St. Ninian, Stirling, son


Robert died at Southwick, Sunderland in 1876 and most of his sons were Iron Shipbuilders who worked on the rivers Tyne, Wear and Tees, as well as at Barrow in Furness and Pembroke Dock/Haverfordwest in Wales.

Whilst Robert may have been born in Airdrie, there may also be links with Coatbridge (note David was born at Govan in 1850) and I would be interested in finding his parents and siblings.

One possible link could be to this family:
James Bryce married Agnes Wood in 1799 in Lanark. They had a large family, all seem to have been born in the same area of Lanarkshire: Jean 1799, John 1801, Janet 1803, William 1804, Agnes 1806, James 20 02 1808, Thomas 05 11 1809, Robert 01 06 1811, David 02 11 1813, Margaret 20 08 1815, George 1817, Alexander 06 09 1812 and Helen 03 08 1821 a second Alexander 19 10 1818.

I believe the only link with St Ninian is the marriage to Agness and I don't believe that Robert was, as far as I can gather at present, related to another, well documented, Bryce family in St Ninian.

Grateful for any information.

Hello there,

I did a quick check on Scotlandspeople and there were no Robert Bryce births between between 1800 and 1830 for births on Airdrie,

There are 35 Robert Bryce births/baptisms for that period  15 in Lanarkshire, one in Old Monkland,
28/04/1811 parents Thomas Bryce and Janet Harvey.

I will look and see if there are any siblings with those parents.

22/08/1813 - Margaret Bryce  Same parents....


Did find this web page that may be useful:

Best wishes and sorry could not help you more

Many thanks for your help Mo.
It has taken quite a while to establish that Robert was born at Airdrie, but it is now proving more difficult to find his parents and siblings.
Will check out the link.
