Don't know if you need/want this but possible baptism for Nathaniel senior ? "Borgue, Senwick, and Kirkandrews were united about the year 1670" - Genuki . Scottish geography not very good  Nathaniel CANTLEY, bapt. 27 May 1764, Borgue, Kirkcudbright, ScotlandWilliam CANTLY, Bapt. 20 May 1762 Borgue, Kirkcudbright, Scotland Ketherine CANTLY Bapt. 11 Nov 1766 Borgue, Kirkcudbright, Scotland Parents George CANTLEY & Grissel SMITH Source: FHL Film 1067973 Dates: 1746 - 1855
That does look very promising Cas
Gallowayshire, at the right time.

Glad some of it has been helpful, think the records around Robina Bapt. are missing or hidden, although I do think with info on marriage cert, fathers' name, occ, and the size of where they lived, area stated.it is is correct.
Found this on another link, but you prob have it...
http://www.flottawebguide.co.uk/research/opr-deaths/opr-deaths.htm#deaths
CANTLY(?), Nathaniel; outpensioner and upwards of eighteen years gardener at Melsetter House; of inflamation of the kidneys and bladder; he was a native of Gallowayshire; 1843 May 23rd
Beautiful pics, here and on the web during research.....really must visit Scotland

What I know of Robina's movements is below (a reply to Brambletye who kindly PM'd me).
"Robina born Longhope, according to one census (1861).
Next sighting I have is Marriage at St Hilda Middlesbrough. Address given is simply Middlesbrough.
All following census addresses are Middlesbrough
Grahams Yard (Off Dacre Street) 1851
Linthorpe Mews 1861
Burial recorded in Middlesbrough Cemetery (Ayresome Gardens now) 1864
Mary Daughter recorded birth 1847 at St Hilda Middlesbrough.( birth recorded as Durham 1851 census. Durham Hartlepool on 1861 census)
William Brown was a seaman, so they could have met and travelled anywhere, I guess, before settling in Middlesbrough."
Also one of William Brown and Robina's sons (Nathaniel George in my avatar) had a 'Family Bible'.
In it he records that his parents came from Stromness.

Not necessarily, George 
Scottish naming conventions -
1st son - after father's father
2nd son - after mother's father
3rd son after father
1st daughter - after mother's mother
2nd daughter - after father's mother
3rd daughter - after mother
Then it goes with father's siblings and mother's siblings in the same pattern, etc. BUT it wasn't always used

Hi George
i have been searcing the NA for you .... There are a few mariner records for Linklater peeps ,,, but I have no clue if they are from Scotland ...I was wondering if the men of this family were all Navy guys ....?

Online Document ADM 188/576
