Bairds of Charlotte St, Ayr
« on: Friday 18 November 05 11:03 GMT (UK) »
Looking for any info related to the Bairds of Charlotte St in Ayr.

They owned a boarding house ?, finishing school in Charlotte St, in the era of 1820 - 80, I believe it was demolished, but not sure. The house was closer to the main road than the water.

Any relatives can drop me a line or any locals who can tell me more about Charlotte Street in general.

I have most of the census returns, thanks.

But I found this website when I was looking at Bairds, it is fabulous for anyone interested in Baird genealogy.  The only reference to Charlotte Street is the 1841 census though.  There is a forum just for Bairds on here, it may be worth posting your query there as well.

Your very welcome  ;)

Before 11 Charlotte Street it seems they occupied Milrig which was also in Charlotte Street.

Two direct ancestors of mine died at 2 Charlotte St in 1914, James and Elizabeth Baird.

Also I think his father was John Baird, who married Susannah clephen in 1825
