D.
Jean Home was the illegitimate Daughter of Francis Home a planter in Grenada.
Francis was the brother of George Home of Paxton the proof is in document GD267/12/5 which can be accessed via the NAS web site. The document refers to a son of James and Jean training to be a Surgeon, but I don't know which son this is, a son from his later marriage to Margaret Shaw did qualify as a licentiate of the college of surgeons (Edinburgh) in Mexborough 1846.
George Home of Paxton and Wedderburn Ancestors go back a very long way.
Another George Home d.1774 was the Town Clerk in Leith he married Janet Halliday is this family in any way related to Jean Home ? Where did she live when she came back from Grenada?

Thanks Brian, you've pretty much confirmed what we thought in relation to Sarah & Anne.
We'd just found yesterday that James Henderson Brown Carmichael was married to Annie Frost and I was wondering how much else you'd found about the Carmichael's from that generation and further down. We've got quite a bit on one branch of the family, i.e Lillias Carmichael but not a great deal on others and wondered what you had?
Happy to share what we know or to help fill in any gaps.
Lindsay

My records for David Henderson Carmichael go back to James Carmichael married to Margaret Shaw 1822.
I think this was his second marriage firstly married to Jean Home 1798 but yet to find proof.
Janet carmichael married to D.H.Carmichael was daughter of Peter Carmichael and Lillias Dick married in St Ninnians 1877 their parents are not certain yet.

Yes I agree, it is really Peter carmichael's death cert. that creates some confusion.
Possibly d. 1884 at Collinton poor House father William Carmichael, Mother margaret Ferguson but can only find Colin Carmichael married to Margaret Ferguson 1789 Perthshire.

a witness on the birth record of my 3xg grandmother Mary Home Carmichael in 1805 was dr Haladay.I've been trying to establish a link with James Carmichael or Jean Home and Dr halliday.I have just discovered that Sir Andrew Halliday also had a link with the army -was appointed deputy inspector general of army hospitals became inspector general of hospitals in the west indies.Could this be a link with Jean Home?
Have been unable to access document via NAS website so far but have a poss link from IGI of birth of Francis Home about 1713 to Sir George Home of Wedderburn and his wie Margaret.

I too had difficulty this time, I searched the Nas catalogue using "Carmichael a clerk at the Tax Office"and searched for phrase this gave 2 results if you click onto the GD number this should be successful,let me know how you get on.

Thhanks Brian managed to gain access and found it very exciting and interesting. It sets me on the right road for the Homes this time.I noticed that the letter of 1806 mentioned wanting a son to be a surgeon That would have to have been one of his and Jeans but the oldest George would only have been about 10. However I also noticed that the letter of 1806 mentioned the upkeep of 6 childrenand he and Jean only had 4 at that time so maybe you were right about a previous marriage. James certainly led an interesting life!! I hope that among us all we can find out more. Will pass on anything I find. Thanks again for your help

D
There is loads of family tree info for Francis home ancestors at Paxton House.
ther is also a Pedegree chart on CD via famillysearch.org I think I still have a copy somewhere I will dig it out if I can.
I lost interest when I found Margaret Shaw was the correct Bloodline

That would be great. I have lots of bits of info noted and put aside when I was searching the wrong line of Homes (due to the name Jane on the 4 birth records I had) Hopefully they will now be of use in putting the "jigsaw" together. Any info will be gratefully accepted. Will let you know if I find out any more about James or the hallidays.thanks again Brian.

Yes, and for anyone else looking later on there is an image of a painting of him available online through the Wellcome Library.
I have seen a message board stating the marriage to Helen Carmichael in 1804 in Edinburgh with his name spelled Holloway.
I do not live in the UK so I wonder if one of the the university's might have a thesis or dissertation with more info on his career etc.
Thanks for the help-Debbie
