LYALL/LEMMON
« on: Tuesday 04 December 07 23:05 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I am new to this group and a fairly new beginner at family research so any help would be greatly appreciated...I am researching a family line of:
Charles W LYALL b:1879 MacDuff, Banff (Fireman Cooper) who married Eliza Maggie Sim LEMMON b:1879 MacDuff, Banff. They were living at 2 Simpson Place, Banff in the 1901 Census

Any information greatly accepted.

Hello Isabel,

wozzle has kindly given the details for 1881 - 1891. It seems Charles William's birth was registered in Banff in 1878. You will be able to get this certificate from ScotlandsPeople. It will give you his parents' names and marriage date; however, you may want to get the certificate anyway as this will give you their parents. :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all off you...and yes this information is the right family...you have saved me hours of work and I am happy to get the certificates from Scotlandspeople.

Joe, I had Alexander LYALL 1808 Macduff and Jane 1807 Banff, Banffshire but did not have a last name for Jane...so many thanks.
My line I am researching is:
Alexander b: 13 /6/1807 and Jane Cormack 30/3/1809(thanks to Joe)
They had Alexander C LYALL 1848 who married Margaret WEST  1849 Macduff (don't have a marriage date).
Alexander and Margaret  had Charles W LYALL 1879 Macduff who married Eliza Maggie Sim LEMMON b: 1876 Banff on the 14 Dec 1899 Banff.
Charles and Eliza had Charles W LYALL b: 20 Nov 1900 @ 2 Simpson Pl, Macduff who married Hilda URQUHART b: 12 May 1905 @ 35 Boyndie St, Banff on the 23 April 1924 @ 3 Boyndie Street, Banff.
Charles and Hilda had seven children there is two still alive and living in Australia....my two children are the Great Grand children off Charles and Hilda.

So I really appreciate all your help, can I ask if any off you are related to this family?
Any other information on any one in this line would be greatly accepted.

Hi Joe,
I have a copy of an article in a Banff newspaper in 1932 that states that: "brothers of Mrs C W Lyall Sen, (this is Margaret West) ex- Provost West and Mr C.I West uncles of Mr C W Lyall Sen" does this fit with any of your information on this family.

 thanks for all your help
Isabel, Australia.
