Title: Christie Family Carnock, Fife
Post by: awilson116 on Friday 07 July 17 14:53 BST (UK)

Hi, this is my first time posting so I hope I have done it right! I am looking for information on my great great grandmother's family. Her name was Margaret Christie and she was born in 1820 in Carnock, Fife. Her parents were John Christie a Sawyer born 1782 in Carnock Fife and Christian Thomson born 1784 in Falkirk, they had seven children in total: Agnas, John,Margaret, William, Christian and Robert.

Margaret went on to marry William Wilson in 1850 in Falkirk, Scotland and they had 6 children: John Christie, Charles Lewis, Christina, Lewis, Catherine and William Christie. She died in 1904 in Calender, Perth, Scotland. I have attached a photograph of Margaret Christie.

Many thanks

Anna

Hi Jim1

I was just wondering if there were any information or connections to Margaret's parents or siblings as I know very little about her Christie connections.

Thanks

Anna
