In memory of James Linton in Millbank who died December 25th, 1746 aged 46 years. Also James, William senior and junior. Mary and Richard Linton's grandchildren. Also Mary Jardine spouse to Thomas Linton in Gimembie who died 8 December, 1843 aged 79.
Have found the headstone. We can't see why Thomas isn't in there, as he had living family. He would have died between the '41 and '51 census.
Would also like to know who Mary Linton - nee Jardine - and Thomas' parents were.
Records show that there weren't many Lintons in Dumfriesshire.
Any other Linton's lerking on this site?
Hi Jamjar

Elizabeth & James Richardson had 5 children 1.David 2.Thomas 3.William 4.James 5.John all born Dumfriesshire.
I have no other info but there is an old posting on Genealogy.com #278 under Linton (obviously) from a Jock Linton who has been working on Lintons in Dumfriesshire for years who seems keen to help Linton researchers.
