James TURNBULL
« on: Monday 16 June 08 23:02 UTC (UK) »
My2xGGrandfather James Turnbull is shown in the Gladsmuir 1841 census as being a groom born in WICK but there is no trace of birth anywhere. Death cert would make him born about 1810.
Is there any school records available in Wick area which could help me.?
I believe his father was Andrew?

Hello,

Just to confirm you mean the Gladsmuir in Haddingtonshire? It's certainly the only one I can find. Smiley In that case, your James would have married Mary Scott (of Stow, Midlothian) in 1841.

Naming patterns of their children would suggest James' mother was named Isabella. An Andrew Turnbull and Isabella Cuthbert(son) had children both in Haddingtonshire and Caithness; however, there is no birth/christening record of a son, James. Undecided

Thankyou for replying.I do know about this family and believe they may be the next generation and I have spoken to their heirs in the 21st century in USA London etc.Renton  Laidlaw the broadcaster is also a direct descendant but none can put my James  into any documentation to prove one way or another so I was looking for any school records that may link them all up. I was given the family bible starting 1841 when James and Mary Scott was married  and I am still at 1841 !!  Being a borderer where the Turnbulls originated from I was hoping to link up down here so that everyone could join the Turnbull Clan Assoc.
