Hello everyone who has been 'threading'
I have only just seen these threads so it is very interesting to read them all. I haven't done research on this branch of the family for some time. Without going into my paper trail at the moment I am pretty sure I got Rebekah's birth/baptism entry from ScotlandsPeople. I will have to go back and see if I can find it. Today I google info for The Lady Kennaway into Sydney 1838 and found IFHAA Shipping Pages which detailed the passengers, their ages, religion, read/write, native place and trade. The Robinsons are there. As I said in a very early thread they were actually Robertson but clerically mispelt! as it is them. I note there is another family also those of Robert Robinson and possibly another that of John Robinson. I haven't look closely into that yet but they all came from Dundee. The IFHAA Shipping Pages site also has the typed out version of the hand notes written by the Captain about the voyage. It is quite interesting to read and also there is a list of births on the voyage and I note there is a girl born to Mrs Robert Robertson and a girl born to Mrs James Robertson and also a girl to Mrs John Robertson. No deaths listed under their name. I have had suggestions on Ancestry for parents of Rebekah Buttars but without evidence I don't want to use them. If anyone has other information I'd love to hear. While in Scotland we did not get to find any graves or visit the related churches. LEANNE JANETTE...your Janet Robertson is the daughter of ANGUS ROBERTSON b1809 and married GEORGINA MCPHERSON. Angus was Anne's brother.
rachaelandtheboo ...it would be interesting to know if you have managed to locate Rebekah's final resting place? Macpherson ...I was interested to read your thread abt the house and other info. I'd be interested to hear more if you find things out. Yes, Catherine had 2 children Isabella Rutherford b 1836 and Daniel b 1839 both born in Scotland. Daniel married a Mary Upton and Isabella married a William Brown. Isabella had a large family, not sure about Daniel but I know he did have one daughter and Daniel married a couple of times.
