Hoping that someone may be able to help!!!!!
We're looking for information on the marriage of John Robb and  ?? |
around Castle Douglas/Crocketford area in Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland in 1851-1853. John's parents were | Bryce and Mary (Gehan) Robb |
in Crocketford in the 1851 census. John's wife died in giving birth to their first child June 1853.
Any information on Bryce and Mary's own families would be great too.
Any help at all would be fantastic.Have a wonderful day!

Hi-ya leeonarobb,
Just started this genealogy thing and I'm finding it very interesting.
I'm originally a New Galloway boy and was told that somewhere along the line I was related to the Robbs.
My grandmother was Mary Grace McGill and I see in your list that there are various McGills. I think (If I've got it right) that Samuel McGill and Grace Robb may have been my Great-Great Grand parents. Robert McGill (their son) being my Great Grandfather.
I also find it very interesting that "Kenview" is mentioned, firstly with Jessie Mary Cowan and then with Marion Robb in 1954. I knew my Grandfather purchased Kenview in the mid 50s. I myself, lived there from 1972-1987. I was always told that the olde world sink in my bedroom was there because my room used to be the doctors surgery. I knew that the previous owner was a Doctor Cowan. There were old stables on the property as this is how he visited his patients.
Any information on McGills/New Galloway/Kenview would be much appreciated.
