Dear Terry, I wonder if there are any MI:s relating to Bernard (Barney) McGhee or any John or William McCoy (McKie) at Kirkcolm

or any MI:s relating to James Graham, Craig McKay(McKie); John McCoy (McKie) or Daniel Gilmour(Gilmore) at Inch?

Many thanks for any information you can give.

Hi Claymore,

Checked all names in both places, only result is 5 McKie's in Inch.

As you didn't give any dates here's a William McKie but buried in Inch not Kirkcolm

Erected in Memory of William McKie who died 27/12/1845 aged 76 years. Also his wife Mary McBride who died 27/10/1856 aged 65 years.

No results for any of the other McKie first names

James Mckie Mason Inchparks who died 24/01/1828 aged 41 years. And of Janet Agnew his wife who died 1/8/1851 aged 55 years. Also of Thomas McKie farmer in Boreland, their only son who died 16/3/1855 aged 31 years. And of Janet Agnew his child who died 8/3/1853 aged 9 months. Also of Jane Wallace wife of the above Thomas McKie who died 20/6/1867 aged 42 years.

There is a Wallace family MI with the mention of a Margaret McKie d 1866 aged ? years wife of Michael Wallace.

There is a McCredie family MI with the mention of Elizabeth McKie d 1844 aged 71 wife of William McCredie

There is a McCune family MI with mention of Elizabeth McKie d 1886 aged 73 wife of William McCune

If you need any of these transcribed let me know.

Terry

Dear Terry, Many many thanks for taking the trouble to check. I much appreciate it. The William McKie you mention is not one of mine as far as I can see. Can I ask if there is a new Parish churchyard at Inch ? I am somewhat mystified by the death of Craig McKie/McKay . I met him as an old man just after the second world war when he lived on a cottage on the Stair Estate.

Hi Claymore,

There is another burial ground, there would have to be really but I don't know anything about it. I'm attaching a link to the Wigtownshire Pages, it's a fantastic resource for genealogists has a huge amount of info on all the parishes in Wigtown. I'm sure you will find plenty there. Sorry I couldn't help any more.

Hello Terry

This is a bit of a poke in the dark but I wonder if you could look at your M.I. records for McClinton and McCaskie.

Thanks for taking the trouble.

Regards, Helen

TERRY - I am helping my husband search his Hewitt family line. His grandfather was a commander in the Royal Navy, James Gilmour Hewitt (b1908 - d1973 Liverpool, Eng), m. Gwendoline Morris (b.1914 - d 1958). I read with interest your post from the Inch churchyard. The father of James Gilmour Hewitt was James Hewitt reportedly a chief engineer on a ship and from Scotland. I wonder if his great grandparents might have been the James Hewitt and Mary Gilmour mentioned in the church records?

Any insight would be appreciated. Many Thanks,

Pam Hewitt

Hi Pam,

I think you may have a match here, I would certainly be looking at it. Especially with the Gilmour middle name for James and the fact that Mary died in Liverpool.

Did you mean James Hewitt/ Mary Gilmour might have been your husbands g grandparents. If so they would really have to have been his gg grandparents, Mary Gilmour d 1892 James Gilmour Hewitt b 1908.

Joseph/Ann
James/Mary (James merchant in Stranraer)
James/? (James reportedly Chief Engineer)
James /Gwedoline (James Commander Royal Navy)

The 1841 census for Inch Wigtownshire on Freecen has the following:

Barsolas, Inch

Joseph Hewitt aged 46 Agricultural Labourer b Ireland
Ann Hewitt aged 56 b outside census county
Margaret aged 20 b Wigtownshire
Andrew aged 11 b Wigtownshire
(Ages may be out on 1841 census)

Also another Joseph (possible son of above Joseph)

1841 Clinnoch, Inch

Joseph Hewitt 25 agricultural labourer b Wigtownshire
Jannet Hewitt 25 b Wigtownshire
Joseph Hewitt 2 b Wigtownshire
John Hewitt 4 months b Wigtownshire

As you have only done one posting (I think you have to do 3)you will not be able to send a personal message yet. Would you like me to send a pm to Lindsaysiam who posted the original query, I think she will be able to help you and she may not look at this thread again.

There must be some McDowall MIs at Kirkcolm? Also McLachlan?

Hi

Had a quick look at the index there are 5 McDowalls listed.

Have to go out so I will transcribe them later. No McLachlans.
