HI HUME;
Very much appreciate your effort in getting me the info on my
"Thomson's,, this has cleared up a great mystery,, there was
some family rumor that 'baby Annie' had died after her 'Mother'
but I had no real confirmation,and after "Wm & Ann" & Kids'
moved to 'Saltcoats' I just ran out of clues,,,,
People moved around so much in those days,'pick up thy bed &walk'
eh, they did not have to get the 'moving-company',,,
Forgot to put in the name of the 'Cochrane' kid I found in 'Perth/Cty'
was "John Lennox Cochrane'(b) 25Apr,1856.Old/Monk and he was a
"Millworker" in Perth, he was only 14-15yrs old, it was on 1871 Census;
Ann & Kids' were in the 'Workhouse' Old/Monkland, it must have been
just after "Hugh" died and they were poor,,, she didn't marry "Wm TH"
till 1876,,,, quite the history,,,,
I have some old pictures of my 'Granfather" taken in 'Ayrshire' some
where with a bunch of his relatives and I have no idea who any of
them are,, it was mid 1930's,
Appreciate all your help,Hume,,,,thx
Kind regards;
Janey;

HI Q98;
Thank you very much for your reply,,, it's a good possible he is mine,
though the age is out a good few years,, my 'Wm.Kidd Cochrane'(b)
1860,Lanark.would have been '15-16'yrs old when his mother married
my 'Grt.Uncle,Wm.Thomson'1876, I guess the' family-kids' were known
as 'Thomson's' back in 'Saltcoats',,,,
I wonder if you can point me in the direction of this 'newspaper'
where I can check death notice for 'parents,spouse,address,etc,etc.'
much appreciated,,,
Kind regards;

HI Q98;
Thank you for your reply,, I immediately went to this 'site' and
"Logged-In" can see I am set up on the 'mem/list/Ayrsh/Roots'
after I registered all my 'info' ,,,,, there is some kind of problem
as I cannot no way get into seeing the "Death/Notice" in the
"Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald",,,,,,
After I 'log-in' a message comes up I am using the wrong name/passwd
I realised after this 'site' has not been updated for some time,, and
I was not sent a 'confirmation' on my registeration,,,!!!!
Are you in touch with the 'Mods' of this 'Ayrshire/Roots',,?
It's not all that urgent I see this notice I was just hoping for a family
member/name/address. These "Saltcoats/Thomson's" were my 'Grand-
father's cousins and I have pictures of him with them taken in 'mid/1930's
but I have no idea who is who,, maybe I should ask for help finding any "Thomson's " in 'Saltcoats' today,,,,
Appreciate your help very much,,,,
Kind regards;
Janey;

Hi again Janey
Try registering again using a different pseunodym or whatever and password. Then try loggin in using those. One thing you need to know about the "Ardrossan & Saltcoats" Herald database; the date shown is the EDITION date of the newspaper in which the notice appeared. It is NOT the date of the Birth, Death, Marriage, etc. As the "Herald" was, and still is, published WEEKLY, you can safely assume the "event" occured around that time ("In Memoriam" being the exception). If nothing else, it narrows down your search time-frame.
If STILL no result, send me a PM with who you are searching for and I'll look them up for you.
