Robert Henderson b1819 East Lothian.
« on: Sunday 08 June 08 13:00 BST (UK) »
I am looking for:
Robert Henderson 26 Dec 1819 in Moreham, East Lothian, married Marjorie Dewar Strachan 15 Jan 1861 in Dundee, Angus. They had 3 children per IGI as aghadowey also found:
Joseph Gibson (born 10 Jan.1862 Arbroath), David Dewar (born 23 Apr.1863 Arbroath) and George Alexander (born 18 Dec.1867 Arbroath).
As these were born in the 1860s, I find it strange that none of them appear on the 1871/81 Scottish census nor their parents!
Robert's sister Elisabeth b 11 Jan 1817 was living with the newly weds at the 1861 Scottish census.
Maybe the whole lot emigrated?
I'm going to post to other emigration boards to see if anything will turn up.

I work at an Old Age Home and we have a lady there who was a Miss Henderson.   Her Dad was Edward Campbell Henderson born June 1879
Apparently she was born in Kimberley I think around 1920-1930.  Is this a family name of the Hendersons that you are looking at??  Unfortunately, the lady concerned has Alzheimers (SP?)

Trust this will help.

Hi Delva P,
Many thanks for your thought but no, I don't believe that she is from the family I am looking for.
