Heriot/Herriot of Crichton or St. Cuthbert's Parish

[pcaldwell]

Searching for ancestors David Heriot/Herriot and Jean Cook(?) who married in St. Cuthbert's (1785-1790) but settled in Crichton and occasionally in Ormiston (East Lothian).  They had a son, David) who married Helen Donaldson in 1816 and had several children (David, William, James, Samuel, John, George, Robert, Margaret, Archibald Ainslie Herriot). Anyone out there have these names in their lines or know of anyone still living in these areas with the surname Herriot?  I would really appreciate your help!  Many thanks from Canada!!

Hi
Found your posting on rootschat.
Wondering if your David Heriot & Helen Donaldson are my GGGGGrandparents.
Their son William married a Margaret Gray and immigrated to Australia ca 1850 - 51.
If so, do you know any more about the siblings and parents back in Scotland ?
Cheers
Janet - Australia

I am still researching my Heriot/Herriot lineage but took a hiatus from this branch to persue other neglected lines.  I will check for all information requested from other posters in this thread and let  you know if there are any connections.  My Herriots settled in Wellington County, Ontario and some of their relatives settled in Guelph. I seem to recall a cousin/brother who went to Australia and I have quite a bit of information on that line as well.  If you want to reach me off list, I would be happy to help with your hunting if I can.  pcaldwell01@hotmail.com    ps. George and Elizabeth (Skinner) Herriot are on the tree somewhere... will have to revisit the tree/forest.
