Hello Jenny,
Just been on to the IGI (www.familysearch.org.uk).

Go to the 'search' tab and enter the parents names only and click 'search'- brings up 7 children (it'll actually say IGI/British Isles and indicate 11, but 3 are duplicate entries). You'll see the first 3 born in Southdean, Roxburgh, Scotland.  The remaining 4 on the Isle of Man.  Possibly yours?  I'd reckon yes.

Further search identifies James Quarry being born on 28 March 1784 to John Quarry and Mary Scott.    John Quarry was born in Yetholm in 1758.  He married Mary Scott on 21 Feb 1783.
When you gto the IGI you'll see there is a 2nd John Quarry b 16 Mar 1755 - but he's not linked to Mary.

My scribbled notes have Margaret Deans being born 05 Sept 1784 in Yetholm and christened 05 Sept 1784 in Eckford - which is 7 to 8 miles to the west of Yetholm - possibly transcription errors?  Only has a fathers name entered ? William Deans.

Have tried searching on Scotlands People for deaths of both Margaret and James - after 1855 - no success.  However - noting that their last children? were born on the Isle of Man ? - they could have died outwith Scotland.

Over to you.

Regards,  Steve  - good luck
