Hi All:
I'm researching the Moffat Clan and have stumbled into a roadblock of sorts with some of the off-shoots of this group.
I have a William Moffat b. abt,. Mar 1783 Annan, died 11 Jan 1848 Annan. He married JENNET IRVING 28 Jul 1805 Annan born 16 Dec 1786 Gretna and died 27 Aug 1851 Annan. She was the daughter of THOMAS IRVING & MARGARET HUGGAN. These are the folks I'm looking for, does anyone have any info about this side of the Irving family?
To clarify which William Moffat and JENNET IRVING family I am looking for, their children were: William Moffat b. 11 Apr 1808 Annan; George Moffat b. May 1809 Annan; Hannah Moffat b. 28 Mar 1810 Annan; Richard Moffat b. 10 Jun 1812; William Moffat b. 1817 Annan; Kenneth McKauley Moffat b. 23 Nov 1820 Annan (this is my gggggrandfather); John Moffat b. 1823 Annan (I have interesting side info on John, if you care to know); Jospeh Moffat B. 28 Dec 1824 Annan; and Janet Moffat b. 5 Oct 1828 Annan.
If this sounds familiar, please contact me. Thanks.

Hi Jamjar:
I have been researching the Moffat family since my gggranddfather is Kenneth McKauley (Macauley) Moffat and his father was William Moffat who married Jennet Irving 1 July 1805 in Annan. And I have that she was born 1786 in Gretna Green. Other children of William Moffat and Jennet Irving are: William b. 11 Apr 1808, Hannah b. 28 March 1810, Richard b. 10 Jun 1812, William b. 1817, Kenneth, John b. 1823, Joseph b. 28 Dec 1824, Janet b. 5 Oct 1828 all in Annan.
Checking with ancestry.com and my cousin it turns out that Jennet's parents were Thomas Irving and Margaret Johnston Huggan born 12 Jun 1761 Langholm. They married between 1778 and 1786. Their children were Jennet Irving born 16 Dec 1786 Gretna Green and Thomas Irving born 11 Jul 1791 Annan. I also have info that Thomas Irving (the father) born 6 Dec 1761 Annan parents are William Irving born 28 Apr 1743 and Mary Johnstone born bef. 1745; Margaret Johnston Huggan's parents are Peter Huggan and Janet Campbell; a little further back is William's parents being John Irving and Margaret Welsh, I don't have parents listed for Mary Johnstone.
I have a little further back on the Moffat's if that would interest you and further forward as well to present day. Kenneth Macauley Moffat married Jane Herbertson Peters 1845 in Annan their only child was Janet Irving Moffat and she is my paternal ggrandmother. The part of the family that I'd like to find out more info on is the Irving's; do you have any info that will help?
