Information for Hugh Baillie Born abt 1825 in Stoneykirk
« on: Saturday 01 March 14 19:51 GMT (UK) »
Could anyone help me find the birth record for Hugh Baillie who on the 1841 Scotland census is aged 16. I think he was employed on a farm Caringarrosh with Margaret Tally aged 42 and Margaret Spratt aged 20. He moved to Dailly in Ayrshire and married Margaret McChesney in 1862 and died in 1882. On his death record his parents are named John Baillie and Margaret Rollie again I cannot find any record for them or any other children they may have had

Have you seen the 1851 entry for him - he is shown as the son of Margaret Sally(Tally??) You would have to check the actual 1851 image on SP as I only have the transcription

There is also a daughter Margaret Sproat (Spratt??)

The family is in Stonykirk

Hi

Have you seen my 1851 census reply above?  Looks like his mother may have re-married as the names seem the same as you quoted for the 1841 entry

I discounted this I managed to get death records for both of the Margaret's and I am convinced he was an employee with them. He is on the 1861 census in Dailly address Knockgerran as a ploughman with the Mackie family, it would appear he met his wife Margaret McChesney on that farm they married in 1862

Hi YOB,
I would agree with Carole - Hugh Baillie is recorded as Margaret Sally's son in the 1851 Census according to FreeCen's transcription . Could Margaret Rollie/Tally/Sally all be the same person?

Looby

Hi loobylooayr, This was my first thoughts different spellings etc but as I am unable to find a birth record for him or any brothers or sisters it made me think although on the census records I have managed to obtain Stoneykirk is stated as the place of birth. On his death record it states his parents as John Baillie and Margaret Rollie. I started to think that perhaps they migrated from Ireland to work on the farms but once again I've drawn a blank, so the search continues. Thanks for your help it may well stop me going off on a tangent
