Hi Bryan,

Hoping you and family are well.  Discovered that our Richard Ramage remarried on the 30th of May 1802 to Jean Anderson in Temple, Midlothian.  I found 4 children of this marriage who were: George b. 20/03/1803, William b. 01/03/1805, John Anderson b. 18/08/1806 and Alison b. 27/11/1808.  All born in Temple.

In the 1881 Census William Ramage age 76 (shepherd) born Temple was living with his daughter Janet and her husband James Young at Hollybush in Galashiels.

William Ramage widower of Janet Clark and son of Richard Ramage (Shepherd) and Jean Anderson died 18 October 1886 at Withknowe, Galashiels.  Cause of death: Cardiac Arthemia.  The informant was his son James Ramage of 12 Glebe Place, Galashiels.

Best regards,

Maggie

P.S. Last year had a third cousin from Australia visit and expecting another in a few weeks (McKean side of the family).

Hi,

Noticed you are researching the Ramage family and i wondered whether you by any chance know of Adam Ramage who married Jean Mcphail they had 2 children born in the 1920's Jean and John. They lived in the Glasgow area.
Jean senior left Adam and later married ? Mckinnon who she had 2 sons by Duncan and Joe.
I believe that the name was also sometimes Fyfe Ramage.
I would be very grateful if you have any information on this family.
Kindest Regards
Jackie

Hi Jackie
   Sorry my Ramage research only goes up to abt 1880 so far.

The families we have found so far were from around Edleston & Innerleithen in Peebles, Temple in Midlothian & Galashiels in Selkirk.

I have the headstone inscription here plus the photo.

Mary Murray Spouse to Richard Ramage Shepherd at Outerston died 3rd May 1799 aged 34 years.

I am researching the area and have around 97% of the names and photos of all the headstones in Temple Graveyard.

Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Archie.

Hi Archie,

I missed the gravestone of Mary Ramage nee Murray when I lasted visited Temple Kirkyard but found the Cornwall headstone of another branch of my ancestors.  I'm very grateful to you.

Many thanks,

Hi Archie
Thank you very much for the photo, it means a lot to us in the Colonies.
I only wish I could get there myself.
Would there be any other Ramages or Donaldsons with headstones.

Cheers

Hi Maggie and Bryan,

good to hear you are happy with what I sent you, right then I have a attached a photo of John Donaldson's Headstone, it is sadly  the worse for wear, but you can make out his name at least. On the stone it reads, ( Erected by John Donaldson in memory of William Donaldson ) it seems that another message or date are all worn away.

Ramage. In the old record book that is badly written there is Thomas Ramage
( 8/12/1888 ), and buried in the same ground is Margaret Brown ( 26/9/1914 ). We then have a Jane Alison Ramage ( 21/1/1897 ), Mary Anderson Ramge
( 11/9/1903 ), Euphemia Ramage ( 17/4/1924 ), Richard Ramage ( 14/3/1931 ), Helen Ramage ( 17/3/1948 ) they are all in the same plot. I have put an arrow pointing to where the plot is at the fence, it is behind the stone with the steps behind the Cross about 20 feet away. I will send anoteher after this.

Quote. If I can make someone smile I have made their day. Smiley

Best

Archie.

You will see exactly where John Donaldson is buried in the photo with the arrow.

I have attached a photo of where the other Ramages are buried, the problem is there is one stone on top of the other, I have no idea which is theirs, sorry about that. The Council has informed me that money is short and they have cut back on the maintenance on the graveyards, I will have to do a bit of begging and see if I can take it over, I could make it look really nice.

What part of Australia are you in ?, we are off on Tuesday to Brisbane for 4 weeks, 1st week we are staying in Amaroo then 3 weeks in Elimbah Q.L. then on the way back 3 nights in Singapore.

Best.

Archie.

Hi Archie,

Many thanks once again - your pictures are wonderful.  Do you have family buried in the Kirkyard?
