Hello
Anyone with information about John Tweedie (1818 - 1877) and his wife Phillis Steele ( c1828 - 1897), who lived in Lochmaben? I have some details of their family and descendants.
I am also interested in Phillis' parents, Joseph Steel and Jean Clinkscails.
Thanks
Lesley

a Jean Clinkscails baptism showing Langholm, 14 June 1784.
Parents - John Clinkscails and Jean Bell.
This is a patron submission so it would need checking against parish registers - Scotlands people www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk or locally

The Thomas one just sneaked in - but as i said, they should all be checked against SP or original records.
So maybe you can do it next time you're in Aberdeen Records Office - there's a nice chap

Added - Thomas is there - just checked the film - it's just that they have only put the females online

Hello Gadget
Sorry for being so rude and not getting back sooner. Yes this information was really useful, although I did have some of it already but the confirmation that I was on the right track was great for me;D
The problem seems to be linking Joseph Steele and Jean Clinkscails elder children to the younger ones. I know that many women had children over a period of 20-30 years and would be grandmothers and mothers in the same year. There is no parish record for a birth/christening for Phillis, so her year of birth is a rough estimate based on Census Returns and her Death Certificate.
One question, do you know where I would find the records for Dumfries Jail in 1851? There is a Joseph Steel listed there in the 1851 Census. I would also like to know if he died in Jail before 1855. 
Thanks for all your help
Lesley

Hi Lesley
My 3 x grt was in Kirkcudbright jail in 1832. I managed to get the charge and release documents for him. I was living a long way from there at the time and paid a local researcher to get them for me.
The documents might be in The Ewart library:
http://www.dumgal.gov.uk/dumgal/MiniWeb.aspx?id=86&menuid=980&openid=949
Give them a ring as they are very helpful.

You seem to know more about family trees than me but I'm always happy to help a fellow genealogist. Just let me know what info you need.
