James Robertson - Bo'ness
« on: Sunday 08 October 06 18:00 BST (UK) »
I have James Robertson christened 14 Nov 1756 in Bo'ness and married to a Margaret Clarkson on 12 May 1777 at Bo'ness.

I have James' parents as James Robertson and Margaret Hoggan.

I also have a James Robertson born circa 1756 in Bo'ness who married an Elizabeth Gordon on 7 May 1777 at Bo'ness.

It has been suggested to me that the parents of the James who married Elizabeth Gordon were James Robertson and Margaret Hoggan!

Does anyone know which is correct?

I would welcome any assistance with this.

Hi Coonwarra
  I am also researching the Robertsons from bo'ness.
 
 The Information that I have is that James Robertson born 14 Nov 1756 is the son of James Robertson and margaret Hoggan. Hope this helps

Hi there

Thanks for your message - the info that you have confirms what I thought.

I am still left with the James Robertson b1756 that married  Elizabeth Gordon at Bo'ness in 1777 - I have still not found out who his parents were.  Hopefully someone will come up with this info eventually!
