Thankyou Norrie for your reply.
This also what I have got over the w/end

James and Isabella Blackwood had:
Alexander Anderson Morton b 1807 m Jean Simpson
Robert b 1807 m Elizabeth Anderson
Thomas Nicholson b 1809 m Mary Bremner
Elizabeth b 1800 m Robert Adamson
Andrew John b 1803 m Isabella Slimming
James b 1801 m Johanna Finlayson/Findlay/Finlison


James and Johanna had
James b 1822 m Janet Lambert
John b 1824 ? married
Andrew b 1825 ? married
Anne b 1829 ? married
Isabella b 1832 m Hugh Lunin eventually USA
William McIntosh b1834 m Elizabeth Dickson - my line eventually Australia

Some of this may be inaccurate given there are so many Mortons in this area,but it is what I have.
My Thanks
Jeanne

Hi Norrie - I'm looking for

Margaret (Bowman) (Simpson) Beveridge: Born 17 August 1797 - Died 20 August 1878.
She was married to William Simpson who died before 1827.
Then married to William Beveridge 23 November 1827.  William Beveridge died in 1851.

I'm actually tracing the Simpson line so if you find a William Simpson thank you.  I posted on the East/West Wemyss site looking for William's son James Simpson (11 Aug 1814 - 13 Feb 1870) who married Marjory Fairfull (abt 1814 - 19 Dec 1891.) but I don't think anything was found.

Thanks in advance!

Laura

Hello Norrie,
I am looking for the McVie's and the Oswalds.  In particular, currently chasing Murray McVie born about 1841(married to David Oswald) and still alive at 1901 Census, but not visible after that.
There are many McVie's that I am interested in, mostly descendants of Barney/Barnie/Bernard McVie and I suspect many are buried in Kirkcaldy.  I am in Sydney Australia and my g grandmother Murray McDonald McVie migrated here with her sister Jemima in late 1870's.  I would appreciate anything you can help me with. My email is (*) Deborah.
